CHABLIS

Finally pulled the cork on the 2009, Domain Costal "Les Truffieres."  Brought back the good memories of tasting Chablis in Chablis, France. Clean, crisp minerality with a zesty mouth feel. Perfect pairing with the shrimp and scallops we enjoyed for dinner. The tasting notes provided by Kermit Lynch mentioned a hint of truffle... didn't taste it this time, but I'm willing to open as many bottles as it takes to experience the unmistakable essence of the famed truffle.
