The new vintage is bright and perfumed, packed with succulent cherry fruit and finishing with crunchy freshness alongside a lick of mineral and dried chilli—a fine release, and just what you want from this type of agile, juicy Cabernet Franc. As Chinon’s most famous son, François Rabelais, once wrote: “Drink always before the thirst, and it will never come upon you.”
Filled with crushed rock minerality, mouth-watering, ripe stone fruits and a waft of sea breeze, it’s a pulpy and classically structured wine, with a rocky texture complemented by racy freshness and Chablis-level length.
The texture is succulent, with the rippling splendour of stone fruit and citrus-skin zestiness to go with its charged acidity and jangle of minerals. The three Ps: power, poise, and persistence. A super villages.
Aromas are intoxicating with floral bouquet with notes of almonds and honey and filled with ripe fruit.
The palate is a festival of flavour: tender and abundant with well balance fruit respecting the terroir and climate.
Hues of yellow straw and shines brilliant with clarity, filling the nose with delicate, pure aromas.
Floral notes of acacia and its claylimestone origins reign. In mouth, its character, the terroir and all the qualities of a Mont de Milieu are revealed: mineral and rich, powerful ripe fruit.
A Petit Chablis, though there's nothing little about it. Ripe stone fruits, brioche, yoghurt, yellow apples, chamomile, intense minerality.
Intoxicating perfumes of summer flowers and fruit fill the nose with character traits of oysters and shells.
Textured with a good acid, fresh and bright minerality - a Chablis aroma couldn't be more authentic than this!
Made from old vines planted between 1965 - 1975, the wine shows intense lime and green apple notes, rounded out by plenty of texture from Charly Nicolle's signature lees work. A precise and powerful Chablis from a low-yielding vintage.
Highly regarded as the greatest estate in Chambolle Musigny, particularly for this Grand Cru Vieille Vignes Pinot Noir. Incredibly rare.
Deep and sustained color. In the mouth, full, sweet and very fruity.
The tannins are dense and refined.
The whole is elegant and of high class! Beautiful potential!
A fresh, sweet and fruity attack on the palate evolves on an important tannic structure soft and of high quality with finesse.
The tannins are very elegant. They bring the wine in a superb finish, delicate and balanced with good acidity.
