2021 Chablis, Forêts, 1er Cru, Louis Michel & Fils, Burgundy

Description

Fôret is another lieu-dit of Montmains but such is its individuality that the great majority of the production is sold as Fôrets. Guillaume has 1.7 ha and he says the soil here is stonier than in Montmains and he is looking for the purest expression of that difference. There is some mid-palate fat but the overriding essence of the wine is of flinty cool stone and a rocky finish.

Critics reviews

Jasper Morris MW 89-92/100
Forêts was badly frosted unfortunately. Pale lemon and lime. The bouquet is more closed here, wants to be mineral but currently reticent. But it has a fine thread of citrus lined stoniness across the palate. Not massive but nicely poised.Drink 2025-2029Jasper Morris, insideburgundy_com (January 2023)
