Jean Chartron Puligny-Montrachet 2017, Puligny-Montrachet — Burgundy, France

Unlock a beautifully aged white Burgundy that proves great Chardonnay only gets better with time. Showing off a richer, smooth-as-silk profile with balanced vibrancy, this 2017 vintage offers incredible depth while remaining completely approachable and fun to sip. It is an ideal pick for an elevated date night, a dinner party crowd, or a cozy evening in.

Tasting Notes: Golden in the glass, this white wine greets you with warm aromas of toasted hazelnut, ripe baked yellow apples, and a touch of lemon zest. The palate is soft and velvety, layering mellow honeyed fruit with a refreshing, salty mineral crunch that brightens up the rich finish. Serve chilled to let all the cozy, layered flavors pop. Pair this with pan-seared scallops, lobster roll with drawn butter, or roast chicken with creamy mashed potatoes.
