Thibault Liger-Belair Bourgogne Blanc 2017

White wine is a wine whose color can be pale-yellow, yellow-green, and yellow-gold colored. The wine is produced from a variety of grape varieties. The flavor and color comes from the juice of the grape and sometimes the skin of the grape as well. Interestingly, not all white wine comes from white grapes. Some select red grapes are used as in Champagne.

Straw-colored and effusive of citrus, pear, green apple and wet stone aromas, this light-bodied, freshly acidic, seamlessly alcoholic (13%) Chardonnay goes on to deliver comparable flavors. Without detectable oak, it is light on its feet but still retains good mid-palate density. Finishing with medium length, this is very well done for an entry level white Burgundy.
