Chablis Domaine Sainte Claire 2022 (Jean-Marc Brocard)
Taste Profile: Bright, pale yellow with green and silver glints. On the nose, a fruity expression of lemon, clementine and tangerine blossom aromas. On the palate, notes of fresh apricot, citrus zest, clementine and tangerine A lovely dense yet subtle wine with a lot of delicious flavour.
Grape: 100% Chardonnay
Serving Tips: Serve between 11-12°C. Excellent with seafood casserole, salmon dishes and cheese (Comté, Roquefort).
Winemaking: The Chardonnay comes from 30-year-old vines with south-facing exposures in the Village of Préhy. Soils are Kimmeridgian with alternate layers of limestone and marls containing fossilized marine bodies, and the vines are farmed biodynamically. After harvest, the wine is pressed and fermented using native years in stainless steel tanks. The wine is then aged in tank for 9 months and malolactic fermentation is completed at this time.
