Our CHABLIS come from parcels situated next to the village of FONTENAY-Près-CHABLIS, at the very heart of Chablis’ vineyards.
On high plains or steep hills, all our Chablis grow on stony soils (Kimmeridgien Limestone) which allow a moderate production. Most of our vineyards are between 15 and 25 years old. Some parcels were planted by Gilles’ great grandfather, Marcel, around 1950/1960.
Characteristics: A broad nose of beautiful minerality – almost a suggestion of noble reduction. Mouth- filling – cool flavours, layers, indeed waves of flavour over the palate – this is another great wine – texturally lovely.
Pleasant with an aperitif, they make a good marriage with oysters, shell fish and grilled fish, but also with traditional Burgundy recipes such as “jambom persillé” (ham with parsley).
