This Chablis is produced from vineyards located on slopes benefiting from a mainly south, southwest sun exposure in villages of the Northwestern part of the Chablis area (Lignorelles, Beine, Villy and Chablis).
Golden colored and very aromatic with white flowers, fresh fruit, lime, citrus aromas as well as a bergamot. Pleasant mouthfeel, supple, crisp, fruity flavors. There is a touch of acidity, revealing a deliciously integrated minerality.
Ideal as an aperitif, the wine is an excellent companion to seafood, smoked salmon for example.
"The 2019 Chablis reveals aromas of fresh bread, orange oil, white flowers and crisp stone fruit. Medium to full-bodied, elegantly fleshy and precise, with tangy acids and a saline finish, it's a fine effort that should develop gracefully in bottle. Indeed, given the wine's structure, I wouldn't be surprised if it were proven to be the most long-lived of the range. - William Kelley"

"This wine's gentle nose gives just slight hints of cornmeal and sundried hay. The palate adds ripe notes of yellow pear that come with a gentle pear-peel texture augmented by yeastiness. Citrus concentration keeps this wine on the fresh, taut side despite the 2018 heat. - ANNE KREBIEHL MW"

"This wine’s flavors of lemon and chalk feel electric, buzzing with fragrance, the green fruit notes taking on lovely fullness in a generously warm vintage while sustaining a fresh profile from beginning to end."
