La Chablisienne – Beauroy 1er Cru Chablis – 2018
$55.00
100% Chardonnay.
A mix of the Beauroy and Troesmes sectors of this 1er Cru. Mid yellow, with, some generosity of flesh, in the form of a, softer white fruit compared to the Grande Cuvée 1er Cru. There is maybe even a little warmth at the finish. Jasper Morris

La Chablisienne
Since 1923 at Chablis in Burgundy, the meticulous care of the vine-growers working together under the banner of La Chablisienne has given birth to wines whose magnificence is amplified by the passage of time. These wines, coming from a mosaic of "climats", or vineyard plots, provide a pallet of emotions marked with a truly mineral touch.
Chablis, half way between Paris and Beaune, forms the real gateway to Burgundy ’s treasure-house of wines. The vineyards, lying on both sides of the River Serein, cover 6,800 hectares (some 17,000 acres) in 20 villages. Of the 4,700 hectares in production, La Chablisienne alone represents nearly 25% and produces every one of the Chablis appellations.
