Chablis - La Cour des Loges 2004.

Lovely light supper tonight, Lemon sole with a herb coating and salad, accompanied by said Chablis.

Another lesson recently learned - I hadnt realised that Chablis is derived from the Chardonnay grape (thanks Billy!) however, what differentiates Chardonnay labelled wine from Chablis? (there's one for later..)

We picked this wine up in France (from Super U in Morceanx!) earlier in the year for about £5 (7.55 Euro) and we chilled it to really cool before opening. It definately stood up to being really cold.

The immediate impression is that it is a light, but not too delicate wine; it really complimented the meal and was strong enough to be drunk after plum crumble too (though not quite as nice as with a clear palate it has to be said!). It has a fresh, clear taste, exhibits good "stickiness" on the side of the glass.

This Chablis is dry and certainly drier than that of our previous post, I'd say as low as 2 on the scale of 1-5 I'm now using.

Another great wine though!
