The Michael Skurnik Wines Dtour is a delightful expression of Chardonnay from the renowned Macon-Villages region, showcasing the exceptional qualities of the 2005 vintage. This wine presents a beautiful pale yellow color, inviting you to explore its engaging aromas. On the palate, the body is medium, providing a pleasing richness that complements the bright acidity, which is lively and refreshing. The fruit intensity is prominent, with flavors of crisp apple and pear leading the way, enhanced by subtle notes of citrus and a hint of minerality that reflects the terroir of Macon-Villages. The wine is perfectly balanced, not overly dry, making it a delightful choice for various occasions, whether enjoyed on its own or paired with seafood or creamy dishes. This Chardonnay from Michael Skurnik is a testament to the elegance and finesse that the region can produce.

France

While it was not the first country to master winemaking, no other country has determined the course of wine and wine culture as much as France. From the sparkling wines of Champagne to the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay of Burgundy; from Bordeaux's sumptuous blends to Alsace's Riesling; and from the Loire Valley's Sauvignon Blancs to exciting new regions like Pays d'Oc in the south, France has given the world nearly all the major styles and grape varieties that dominate what we drink today. There are numerous reasons why France and wine are so inextricably linked, but perhaps the foremost is geography. Few places can rival France's unique array of hot and cool-climate regions and the abundant maritime influences and mountainous terrain found throughout the country.
