Product notes

25-year-old plots on the left bank of the Serein. Municipality of Chablis. Southeast exposure.

Production notes

Cold static settling before starting fermentation. Alcoholic and malolactic fermentations in vats and barrels. Duration approximately 12 months on fine lees, in vats and in barrels.

Tasting notes

Pale yellow color, limpid and brilliant with some bronze reflections. The first nose is expressive and fruity (peach, apricot) and then vegetal (fresh grass). The mouth is greedy and fruity with caramelized notes which bring a nice roundness. The finish is slightly woody, spicy. Pairings with curry shrimps and poultry skewers.

James Suckling, July 2018 (Vintage 2016)

Attractive fragrant melon with nuances of white peaches and citrus on nose and palate. The acidity is salient, really pushing the palate along nice and deep. Drink or hold.

Allen Meadows, October 2017 (Vintage 2016)

A whiff of the exotic can be found on the fresh and densely fruited nose of white peach, pear, apricot and oyster shell aromas. The rich, succulent and equally dense broad-shouldered flavors brim with dry extract while delivering outstanding persistence on the bone dry finish, in fact this is unusually dry in the context of what is typical for the vintage.
