2017 Angerville Bourgogne Blanc -- ugh

I have never seen Angerville’s Bourgogne Blanc before, so when I saw the 2017 I picked one up to give it a shot.

This was, in a word, shocking. Unfortunately not in the good way. The nose is a face full of butter and oak. The palate is a mild improvement, with some minerality balancing out the heavy butter note, but this tasted like a California Chardonnay to me (and not the good kind of California Chardonnay). Really a complete mess and a total disappointment. Will be sticking to their Volnays going forward.

Bummer. I have not tried their Bourgogne blanc before and as you, would have definitely taken a roll on one to see what it was like. Would not have guessed it would be like that.

Sorry it came up snake eyes.
