Our tasting
From the first nose the minerality already shines, this almost earthy minerality is drenched into an amazing fruit. A bit of breathing has those fruity notes evolve to a more precise stone fruit impression. The mouth brings another level of precision making you think about apricots and peaches. A slightly toasty hint gives depth to the tasting and prolonges it between richness and a fine tension for a charming Old Vines Chablis. A truly earthy minerality, a generous and rich fruit and subtly toasty notes, everything an Old Vines Chablis that can shine through time and tastings should have.
Our culinary advice
It is perfect with poultry and creamy cheeses.
