Notes
Veuve Fourny is a small, family-owned estate business in France offering great value for money. The chardonnay grapes are 25% fermented in barrel, 75% in tank. Three vintages plus older reserve wines spend 2.5 years on tirage. A flowery bouquet with citrus zest, spice and toast; a long, intense palate with biscuit notes, then a fresh finish. Alcohol: 12%. Price: $65. Rating: 95/100. James Halliday Top 100 2014
