Simonnet-Febvre, Saint-Bris (Burgundy, France) 2017

Aug 14, 2019

By Michael Apstein

 Simonnet-Febvre, another superb Chablis producer, crafts a consistently balanced Saint-Bris. The initial whiff screams Sauvignon Blanc, but amazingly, within minutes, aromas and then flavors of wet stone appear.  Clean and cutting, this edgy wine displays plenty of depth.  Where are the steamed clams?
