2022 Bourgogne Chardonnay 'Cuvée de Chanoines de Notre Dame', Maison Jaffelin
This is a Bourgogne with real pedigree, and has a flavour of something grander - profound apple and apricot, lively citrus and a whisper of oak. Stunning poise and balance here, with a very moreish character.
I do like Chardonay, normally choosing a Chablis. On this occasion I chose the Jaffelin and was not disappointed. It was approaching the top end of my usual price bracket but worth it.
