Since 1923 at Chablis in Burgundy, the meticulous care of the winegrowers working together under the banner of La Chablisienne has given birth to wines whose magnificence is amplified by the passage of time. These wines, coming from a mosaic of vineyard plots, provide a pallet of emotions marked with a truly mineral touch.

Appellation:
Chablis Grand Cru, Burgundy

Country of Origin:
Burgundy, France

Type:
White/Blanc (Still)

Grape Variety:
100% Chardonnay

Vinification:
Cold settling before fermentation. Both yeast and malolactic fermentations in tanks.

Maturing:
20 months on fine lees, in tanks and small barrels.

Tasting Notes:
The old vine character and concentration is evident because the density of fruit is evident on the sea water infused nose while the textured, serious, intense, rich, pure and relatively refined full-bodied flavors are brimming with sve and completely stain and coat the mouth on the beautifully long finish. This doesn’t have the sheer class of the Preuses but it’s a truly lovely effort all the same.
