2020 Domaine Cheveau Bourgogne Blanc 'Les Boutillets'
From: Burgundy, FranceVarietal: Chardonnay Taste: Mineral notes (silex) meet zesty grapefruit, green pear, white peach, acacia, almond, brioche, and a hint of honey and oolong tea leaves in the glass. The palate largely mirrors the aromas in the glass, with lemon curd and a flinty + grapefruit finish balancing a generous and silky mouthfeel. This gorgeous and affordable white Burgundy over-delivers in the glass and could be easily mistaken for a baby Pouilly-Fuissé. Pairing: Go with the classics— or anything inspired by them. Seared scallops (check out the Sea Scallops Persillade recipe below), grilled prawns or shrimp tacos, poulet roti, veal or chicken in a cream sauce with morels, risotto or pasta, white fish with brown butter, lemon, and tarragon or with herbed blossom butter, and even the humble but delicious jambon et beurre baguette.
