Domaine Louis Michel Chablis 1er Cru "Vaillons" 2022, 750ml
These small climates in the Valvan Valley: Vaillons, Roncières, Mélinots are blended during the vinification process, to create 1er Cru Vaillons. Located in the left bank planted in Kimmeridgian soil with hard limestone and high clay content. Moderately deep with a reddish brown appearance. The climate in the valley acts as a heat trap, which gives this wine warm and spicy notes; or even roasted notes.
Long fermentation using indigenous yeasts, in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Malolactic completed. Matured for 12-16 months in stainless steel tanks, with the least possible handling. Long cold stabilization.
Tasting Note:
It features an expressive and complex bouquet with aromas of peach, lemon, mineral, and lanolin. On the palate, it is harmonious and silky in texture, evolving nicely to a long, fruit and mineral aftertaste. This vintage showcases a refined balance and a rich, complex profile, making it a standout expression of the Vaillons terroir.
