2015 Marcel Servin Chablis Grand Cru "Blanchots", Burgundy, FranceABOUT THIS WINE This is the most southeastern of the Grand Crus. Francois does this Grand Cru entirely in stainless steel. During one Gourmet Tour in 2005, Francois opened a 1975 Blanchot. It was spectacular. I still have that empty bottle. On a Gourmet Tour in 2006, he opened at 1976 Blanchot. Plenty of staying power. One of my favorite white wines. ABOUT THIS PRODUCER Francois makes wine because he loves to make wine. He uses old world traditions
