Chanson Bear
$420.00 Dr. Dennis Clements

6605_Chanson.jpgRaise your glass for a case of six (6) bottles of Chanson Chablis Grand Cru 2006 wine. The vintage chardonnay originates from Les Clos, one of the most famous Grands Crus of Chablis, and aged in French oak for 10 months. The Chanson Chablis Grand Cru is generous, dense and complex. A well-structured body, with a beautiful aromatic combination. The taste has a well-integrated minerality and an outstanding pesistence. The Chanson Chablis Grand Cru has a pale gold color. The taste is filled with intense floral fragrances mixed with aromas of green almond, honey and vanilla enhanced by a very refined minerality.

About the Vintage 2006: The weather at the start of summer was quite demanding.  However, the sun appeared at the end of August and continued throughout September.  The harvest commenced in mid-September in perfect conditions. Careful selection of grapes in the vineyard and winery have produced beautiful white wines with fantastic acidity. The vines selected by Chanson are ideally located right in the heart of the plot of limestone soil. The upper part of the plot brings the minerality and the lower part with alluvion deposits gives the rich character of this wine.

Tasting: Pale gold color. Intense floral fragrances mixed with aromas of green almond, honey and vanilla enhanced by a very refined minerality.
