Vignerons de Buxy Montagny 1er Cru

Vignerons de Buxy Montagny 1er Cru 2013

Chardonnay from Cote Chalonnaise, Burgundy.
Vignerons de Buxy is composed of more than a hundred winegrowers. Like co-op.

Ripe fruit and tropical fruit. There was subtle savoriness, maybe from oak or lees.
Rich mouth feel.

Cote Chalonnaise is lesser known area comparing with the legendary Cote d'Or.
It's located to the south of Cote d'Or: their wines are supposed to be lighter having the aspect of slopes not as ideal as Cote d'Or's.
They sill produce great wines, but the price can be affordable (this wine was $18.99, as it says on the picture).

We had this with Salmon Nabe.

The fruit in the wine could have been a little too ripe for the dish, but it was good dinner.
