Chablis 1er Cru Mont de Milieu
The term “Mont de Milieu” corresponds to an ancient separation between Burgundy and Champagne, still symbolized today by the presence of a stone marker erected at the top of this hill.
Wine Production
The juice is delicately extracted by a long pneumatic pressing, ensuring a juice of high quality thanks to homogeneous extraction. Then it’s settled by natural static clarification. Alcohol fermentation is carried out in stainless steel tanks under controlled temperatures to preserve the fineness and freshness of the grapes. Once malolactic fermentation ends, the wine is left to age in oak barrels on fine lees for 12 months, with lees stirring to bring fullness and complexity to the wine.
Tasting Notes
Pale gold with green hues. Aromatically, the Premier Cru is highly complex. Deep and structured, with persistent and impressive aromas.
Food Pairing
To be enjoyed with all fish and shellfish, white meats, creamy sauces and cheeses.
