The Joseph Drouhin Laforet Bourgogne Chardonnay is a delightful white wine from Burgundy, France. Its nose is full of aromas of white peaches, honey, and a hint of lemon zest. On the palate, it is creamy and elegant, with a pleasant acidity and a hint of toast. The finish is long and lingering, with notes of ripe melon, lemon, and a hint of minerality. Enjoy this wine on its own or paired with seafood, poultry, pork, or light cheeses.
