'19 Vorberg and '17 Beru Monopole Chablis

 Two beautiful white wines this evening.


'19 Vorberg is the most beautiful young Vorberg I've encountered. It's immediately attractive... actually could be described as having juicy ripe fruit. It closes down slightly after 90 minutes or so. Lot of time left to develop over the years, but I encourage you to crack one now to see how beautiful it is. 
Paired with tempura fried langoustines,  followed by seared tuna, grilled spicy carrots and potato cakes.

First time trying Clos Beru, and this happened to be the Monopole bottling. Gorgeous out of the gate, really show casing the beauty of the '17 vintage. This will only get better over time, but don't miss uncorking one now. What a lovely wine.
