Patrick Piuze creates Chablis worthy of admiration. His Bougros carries leesy weight, with powdery minerals dusted atop a firm texture. The flavors are honeyed, quietly brooding with buckets of Mirabelle plums on the palate. An unctuous finish closes the experience, making this wine extremely memorable. Chablis is meant for a meal. Suggested options are any roasted bird and rich buttery gravy or creamy west coast oysters or other firm seafood, like lobster, cod, and halibut. Alternatively, it will cellar for many years. Piuze's Bougros is fermented and aged in six-year-old barrels and the vineyards are 39-years-old. They are situated on a steep, south-facing slope that reveals bluish gray clay.

Burgundy

The range of wine styles offered in Burgundy rivals that of any other region. In Chablis, Chardonnay is left unoaked to produce lean, crisp, steely wines with incredible acidity - a far cry from the vanilla-oak bombs that so many consumers associate with this grape. Fans of rich, unctuous, and well-oaked Chardonnay will enjoy Chassagne-Montrachet, whose age-worthy offerings offer all the fatness of a California wine, yet retain a very Burgundian, mineral-driven core and great acidity....

Chardonnay

From Champagne to Chablis, it's hard (not to mention unpleasant) to avoid this famous white variety. During a huge popularity surge beginning in the late 1980s, Chardonnay plantings have increased dramatically -- not only in California's wine country, with which the variety is nearly synonymous, but also in Burgundy (its original, Old World home) and just about everywhere else in the winemaking world. It is a flexible, eager-to-please grape, responding well to just about anything a winemaker...
