Bourg Lachamps Chardonnay (half bottle) 2005 £3.89
More prestigious regions often trade on reputation, medal-winning Bourg Lachamps offers a richness to rival the top without the lofty prices. West of the Rhone in a maze of rugged gorges, (it's no wonder the wine isn't better known), Chardonnay hits the high golden notes Burgundy fans adore - no oak required! Hand-crafted in artisan quantities by winemakers with deep respect for Chardonnay at her most regal... glinting gold with honeyed aromas and a luscious yet fresh mouthful of nectarine apricot and melon. Burgundian intensity, this is a superb dinner party wine.
