A classic Chablis!
More Info
Tasting Notes:
A classic Chablis; this wine is a pale straw yellow in colour, with a bouquet of apple and pear aromas with a distinctive smokiness. The palate is crisp and clean with notes of green apple, white peach, blossom and melon. The fresh acidity gives which wine a clean feel and the finish is long and mineral. The flinty streak of minerality in this wine is from the Kimmeridgian clay, the vines get nutrients from fossils which make up the soil structure.
Only 100 miles south of Paris, Chablis represents the northern limit of Burgundy`s wine regions, centred around the town of Auxerre. The soils are predominantly limestone and chalk, perfect for the Chardonnay grape, the only variety allowed in Chablis. Careful siting of south facing vineyards enables the vignerons to produce classic, dry, and steely wines.
