Wine of the week: Burgundy brilliance

It's no secret - we at KulTour love Chardonnays from Burgundy. The reasons are plentiful, but mostly it's because the wines are at their best some of the most superb wines you can find. And we have made it our mission to find the best wines at the best prices and this week’s wine is a steal!

Vincent Girardin started out with 2 hectare of vineyards in 1980 and has slowly expanded since then. Today he produces almost 50 different white wines and nearly 30 reds. Focus is on a modern, aromatic, fruity and terroir driven wine that can be enjoyed now but also will develop in the cellar. 

Tasting notes:

Girardin Bourgogne Chardonnay Terroir Noble 2015 - 220,00 kr

Superb chardonnay. Lemon and subtle hints of butter on the nose, indicating a finely integrated oak. Toast, lime and hints of butter again in the mouth. Very elegant as you would expect from a top Burgundy even at this price. 
Very good by itself but will also be fantastic with most fish dishes. Especially with a hollandaise sauce.
