Beautified by a luminous, crystal-clear gold hue, its alluring bouquet teems with aromas of lychees and green apples with hints of anise and saltiness. Famed for its vivacious acidity, it possesses a delicate minerality that enhances the intricate layers of fruit flavours. Its robust freshness defines the palate, leaving a resonant aftertaste. Fabulous as an aperitif, it pairs perfectly with shellfish and poultry. Joseph Drouhin's meticulous vinification process contributes to the unique character and finesse of this exceptional Chardonnay. A delectable indulgence for the discerning palate.

Tasting Notes

An elegant wine. Brilliant colour, with hints of green. Typical Chablis nose, where aromas of citrus (lemon) fern and salty sensations predominate.The palate is vigorous and lively, a lot of finesse and balance. The wine shows great purity of taste and a pleasant floral style. Chablis is very mineral in character, almost briny.
