IT'S ALL IN THE DETAILS

Wine maker notes
The clay-limestone hillsides of the Kimmeridgian chain are excellent for growing dazzling, complex Chardonnay, also known here as “Beaunois.” However ideal the soil, Olivier brings his own brilliance to the table. The grapes from his vineyards throughout the Chablis appellation are blended into one fabulously complex village wine cuvee. He also bottles an extraordinary premier cru from Fourchaume, as well as a separate cuvee of old-vine fruit in heavy, wax-sealed bottles after elevage in demi-muids. These exquisite wines are quintessential Chablis, with unmistakable aromas of ancient crushed shells and a pronounced, racy mineral structure.
