Chardonnay, Jean-Claude Boisset, Bourgogne `Les Ursulines`, France

Tasted September 2025: 

Jean-Claude Boisset ‘Les Ursulines’ Bourgogne Blanc — ✅ Highly recommended

Perfumed and non-oaky, yet with proper body and flow.

Silky texture with a clean, mineral finish.

Will also appeal to Sauvignon Blanc lovers.

Serious for an entry-level white, with cedary citrus and an impression of creamy lees. The texture here adds to the depth of fruit. Whole, well-made in this volume.

• Wine Enthusiast (Roger Voss): 90/100 – Praised for its "richly textured" palate, "succulent red fruits," and structured tannins, with aging potential noted. Best from late 2021 onward.
