2020 Servin Chablis
While reviewing inventory, I was surprised to find a handful of 2020 Domaine Servin Chablis cases. For some reason, they had not been turned βonβ for sale on the website.
It would have been rude to not sample one of the Montee de Tonnerre to report its progress to you. And frankly, oh my, the tasting is what has inspired this email.
Hints of lemon and lime on the nose along with a nuance of seashell and ocean breeze. It immediately tells you that you can be in no place other than Chablis. The mouth is classic Montee de Tonnerre, chiseled, mineral driven, with intensity and freshness all in a package that is oh-so-light-on-its-feet. The only thing this wine was missing for me, was a plate of oysters, but this can be my own personal tragedy. Take a bottle to your local Oyster stand and revel in the pairing. Absolutely stunning!
I agree when many of you tell me that the price of Chablis is starting to get away from us. But believe me when I tell you, at all price points, there is not a better White Burgundy out there. I guarantee it. Grab this one before it disappears. In Stock
