A new addition to the Sainsbury's range for autumn, this white Burgundy is made by Mâconnais producer Charles Drouin. Sneaking in at under £20, it offers good value for money, with nice depth of ripe lemon citrus on the palate, which is creamy and rounded thanks to six months on lees in barrel and vat. Well balanced, with good peristence, it would work nicely with your roast turkey at Christmas.
