{"product_id":"2009-droin-chablis-montee-tonnerre","title":"Jean-Paul \u0026 Benoît Droin Chablis 1er Cru \"Montée de Tonnerre\" 2009","description":"\u003cp\u003eA distinctly ripe but relatively classic nose offers up aromas of white flower, fresh citrus, stone and sea breeze nuances that complement well the rich, powerful and full-bodied flavors that possess ample volume and while this is not as concentrated as the Mont de Milieu, it is both finer and more detailed on the even longer finish. Burghound 90-93 - Sweet Spot Outstanding!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer note:\u003c\/b\u003e Benoit Droin noted that 2009 \"did not produce classic wines in the same fashion as 2007 or 2008 but they are rich, delicious, fresh and reasonably well balanced. They will be ideal for restaurants and for consumers who lack perfect storage conditions as they, as a very general rule, will not make for old bones anyway. They make me think of the '06s, which are already drinking well and the '09s will probably age along the same lines.\" As to the now in-bottle '08s, they have largely confirmed what I saw last year from samples. In particular\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e I call your attention to the Mont de Milieu and the Montée de Tonnerre as they offer stunning quality for the price\u003c\/span\u003e. Droin told me that he had just sulfured the wines one week before my visit and this had had the effect of \"sharpening\" the finishes. Note further that the wood regimen (when there is one, not all wines see some) varies for each wine\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vins Rare","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46037326921967,"sku":"2782","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0707\/7140\/9135\/files\/droin_mdt2021-LBL.png?v=1772598544","url":"https:\/\/vinsrare.com\/products\/2009-droin-chablis-montee-tonnerre","provider":"Vins Rare","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
