WINE DESCRIPTION
La Chablisienne Chablis 1er Cru 'L'Homme Mort' made from Chardonnay sourced from the vineyard located on the right bank of Serein within the larger Fourchaume 1er Cru. Soils are composed of kimmeridgian marl limestone. Vinification takes place in stainless steel tanks to retain the purity of flavors of Chardonnay grown in this unique terroir.
Maturation last for approximately a year and a half on fine lees in mostly stainless steel tanks with a small proportion of large barrels, some of which are new. The resulting wine is citrusy, crisp, and mineral-driven.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Chablis shimmers in the glass with a pale straw hue with green reflections.On the nose, it displays aromas of lemon, apple, and mineral notes. On the palate, the wine is crisp and taut with a refreshing acidity and a persistent, elegant finish. The gently leesy notes are complemented by flavors of lemon, green apple, and a hint of salinity. The textbook marked chalky minerality is in full evidence and adds another layer of complexity alongside the hint of sweet spices from the oak.
