What to Expect

Chablis is a region of France's Burgundy region responsible for some of the most distinctive expressions of the Chardonnay grape. On the limestone rich soils of the area, Chardonnay produces wines that can be steely, yet rich with orchard fruits and mineral tones. Unlike the typical white Burgundy, most Chablis sees little or no new oak which allows the grape to express itself with a purity that barrel aging can obscure. Often quite reticent in their youth, Chablis may require several years of ageing in order to be able to fully express the depth and richness it keeps in reserve.

This has a lot of fruit on the nose and a deep, earthy tone that is not as mineral as many Chablis but intense and appealing. On the palate this is vibrant and taut with great depth to the citrus tones with a hint of green melon on the back end. the finish gains a distinct mineral almost salty tone and the finish is long with a gentle return of grapefruit and floral inner mouth perfumes. 91pts
