Chablis last night

Post by Nicklasss »

With a lobster fiesta last night, we drank two Chablis from the 2020 vintage, the Jean-Marc Brocard and the Pinson.

While both were respecting the Chablis character, I would give the edge to the Brocard as the most satisfying of the 2. White flower, bit of fruit, lot of shell minerals, with medium dense mouth, and a saline aftertaste.

The Pinson was quite good too, but of a slightly lighter style. And as the Pinson is +10$ per bottle vs the Brocard, the Brocard is the top qpr.

By the way, I ate 2 lobsters of 2.5 lbs each, a first time for me, eating that much lobster. They were delicious.

My friend Alex ate 3.5 lobsters...

Wow! I usually eat a single 1.25 pounder.
