The grapes come from eight different areas, located mainly on the left bank of the Serein River, Pargues in the Forêts valley and Vaillons. They are blended with the terrain located just below the Tonnerre Hill, to create this authentic Chablis.
Tasting Notes
This Chablis reveals notes of white fruit, such as peach, and has a persistent mineral structure. On the palate, the stony sensation so typical of Chablis makes this wine round and pure. It should be aired before tasting.
Terroir
The vineyards are located in the heart of the historic vineyard area. Various types of soil, from the Kimmeridgian period: loamy texture, medium depth, on marl with oyster fossils. A little bit of limescale.
Vinification
No added yeasts, long fermentation with indigenous yeasts, in temperature-controlled vats. Spontaneous malolactic fermentation. Matured for 6 to 10 months. In stainless steel tanks, with as little handling as possible. Moderately cold long stabilization. Stabilization with concrete, if necessary. The wine is gently filtered once before bottling.
