2022 Chablis, La Fourchaume, 1er Cru, Bessin-Tremblay, Burgundy

Description

This is made from just over half of their 2.15 hectares in Fourchaume with 50-60-year-old vines. The nose has some warming spice notes as one would expect in Fourchaume, but there is a surprising mineral character too. It has density and breadth with an enveloping, creamy and floral finish.

Critics reviews

Jasper Morris MW 90-93/100
Clear pale lemon colour. There is quite a chiselled edge to this for Fourchaume. A little fresh plum with some-ripe citrus alongside. More sensual behind with very good length.Drink 2025 - 2032Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy_com (July 2023)

About this wine

Fourchaume

Fourchaume

Winemaking in La Fourchaume, a prestigious Premier Cru vineyard in Chablis, involves meticulous processes to capture the essence of its terroir. The southeast-facing slope ensures optimal sun exposure for the Chardonnay grapes. The Kimmeridgian limestone soils with fossils contribute distinct mineral flavours. Stainless steel fermentation preserves freshness, while ageing highlights the grape's natural attributes.
