Tasting notes
There is a bit more wood influence on the slightly exotic nose of white peach and lychee with a pretty floral top note and just enough Chablis typicity to be interesting. The concentrated and tautly muscular flavors possess fine mid-palate density as well as outstanding length on the balanced and moderately dry finale. This possesses fine development potential and it is noticeably more structured than the Vaillons. Drink 2030+

The 2022 Chablis Montmains 1er Cru is aged 20% in barrel for nine months. It has a pretty nose of yellow fruit, combining nicely with wet stone and subtle fern-like scents. The palate is well-balanced with fine acidity, good concentration and a discrete pepperiness coming through towards its cohesive finish. This is a well-made, flavorsome Montmains.
