Grape varieties : Chardonnay
Origin : Located in northern Burgundy near Auxerre, the Chablis
vineyards are alongside a small river aptly named: the
Serein ("Serene").
Vinification : Traditional vinification. The grapes are pressed on arrival
at the winery using pneumatic presses. The fermentation
takes place in stainless steel tanks thermo-regulated at
16°C.
The wines are aged on fine lees for 9 months in stainless
steel.
Soil : The Chablis region is a limestone plateau cut by valleys.
The Premier Crus lie on a stratum dating from the
Kimmeridgian (155 millions years BC) with alternating
marl and limestone and tiny deposits of oysters in the
rock, reminiscent of the warm and shallow sea which then
covered Burgundy.
Country origin : FRANCE
Colour : Bright pale yellow in colour.
Nose : Open nose of white fruits with a nice minerality offering complexity.
Palate : The palate is well-balanced and the finish is lemon- flavoured and fresh.

white meats in sauce (veal, poultry). Sushi pairs perfectly
with its minerality. Goat cheese, Blue cheese and Comté.
