Burgundy White
Burgundy wine is wine made in the Burgundy region in eastern France, in the valleys and slopes west of the Saône River, a tributary of the Rhône. The most famous wines produced here—those commonly referred to as "Burgundies"—are dry red wines made from Pinot Noir grapes and white wines made from Chardonnay grapes. ~wikipedia
Marie-Pierre Manciat Macon Morizottes 201191 Robert Parker

Wine Advocate 91-93"The 2011 Chablis Vaillons takes hold of the palate and never lets up. It boasts gorgeous persistence in an understated style that is hugely appealing. The 20% oak is very nicely integrated. Today, it appears to be more subdued than 2010, but it is very pretty just the same. The

Olivier Leflaive 'Les Setille' Bourgogne 2010"The 2010 Les Setilles is, as usual, a stunning value from Burgundy. The wine is medium in body with notes of green apple, pear, mineral and just a touch of smoky oak on the finish.
