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.

Allen Meadows, October 2022 (Vintage 2021)

A discreet but discernible application of wood sets off ripe yet cool and pure aromas of pear, apple and ocean breeze. The delicious larger-bodied flavors possess both fine concentration and power while delivering very fine length on the tension-filled finale. This isn't quite as complex, at least not yet, as the Montée de Tonnerre but I underscore that Mont de Milieu is justly known as one of the best aging premier crus.

Outstanding
