    Think of this unoaked Chardonnay as Muscadet's answer to white Burgundy, but at a third of the price! This is a wine that is lean, mineral-driven, and rivals village-level white Burgundy (a spunky competitor to Chablis, perhaps). Underripe orchard fruit, especially apple skin, with an incredible mineral component and searing acidity. This wine is planted on a massive granite slab that was used to build fortresses during Roman times! This wine demands raw oysters, mussels, or even baked lobster.

    About The Varietal

    Chardonnay

    Chardonnay, possibly the most famous among white grape varieties, is frequently regarded as reaching its peak expression in its Burgundian birthplace. However, this grape has journeyed across the globe, and Chardonnay wines, ranging from outstanding to less inspiring, can now be discovered in various wine-producing regions worldwide.
