A clean, modern wine that perfectly illustrates what happens when really talented winemakers work hard to bring out their terroirs. While Chardonnays from Southern Burgundy have traditionally been dry and mineral, Thibert’s wines are silky, with a lingering fruit finish.

  A delicate nose of soft apples, subtle white truffle, lemon, stony mineral scents, and floral notes. Zippy acidity balances intense citrus fruit in this light-bodied wine. Fruit-forward, with a mouth-coating texture that lingers through a lively, moderately long finish.

  Food pairing: salade nicoise, poultry

  A Chardonnay can have toasty notes without being buttery, and this is a good example of the type. Offers rich notes of toasted almond and vanilla on the nose with green apples in the background. Green apple dominates the palate at first, but a bit of pineapple sneaks in on the finish.

  Food pairing: Oil poached halibut
