2008 Baronne du Chatelard Bourgogne Blanc 3L Box

Burgundy, France

Baronne du Chatelard Bourgogne Blanc is a delightful discovery for Chardonnay lovers who prefer their wine without the butterscotch! What’s especially interesting about this new wine gem is its innovative packaging. It comes in an adorable wooden Wineberry Box made of Bordelais oak and it holds 3 liters of wine—the equivalent of 4 standard 750ml bottles. Perfect for parties and summer picnics because it’s so lightweight and durable—and amazingly compact! It’s also a great everyday house wine, and you don’t need to worry about 3 liters of wine going bad. Once the tap is opened the wine will last for six weeks in its airtight bag inside the box! What’s not to like?

Baronne du Chatelard Bourgogne Blanc is 100% Chardonnay with a color of soft amber-gold. On the nose it offers uncomplicated aromas of pure Chardonnay--pear, apple and brioche. Soft and plump with medium-full body and nice balance, it shows flavors of green apples, pears and hazelnuts. This Chardonnay is crisp in the palate with a round, lingering finish.

Enjoy Baronne du Chatelard Bourgogne Blanc over the next 3-4 years with your picnic baskets and with grilled chicken, baked swordfish, steamers, Cobb salad and goat cheese.

Note three 3L boxes constitute a "case" for case discount pricing.
