Domaine Garnier et Fils - Chablis 2023

Keywords : Indulgent / Mineral / Elegance

The wine : The Chablis from the Garnier brothers evolves between roundness and tension and displays a superb balance on the palate. Citrus notes (lime and lemon), green apple as well as peach are present on the palate, captured by an indulgent texture that gives this cuvée great presence. Aromas of butter, cream, and hazelnut can also be distinguished. The finish is marked by minerality, leaving us with an immediate desire to return to it. A Chablis favorite with an intoxicating maturity!

The estate : Located in Ligny-le-Châtel, north of Chablis, the Garnier & Fils estate is a family property run by two brothers: Jérôme and Xavier. One in the cellar, the other in the vineyard, the two partners each have their own area of expertise on this 30-hectare vineyard located within the AOC Chablis and Petit Chablis. The Premiers Crus and Grands Crus are in fact sourced from grapes purchased from partner winegrowers. However, selection here is strict and the plots are chosen with great care to create exceptional terroir wines! The aging process is equally subtle, varying between stainless steel tanks, large wooden vats, and oak barrels, without ever overpowering the wines. The yeasts used for fermentation are also indigenous, and only a very light filtration is carried out before bottling to impact the cuvées as little as possible. Discover their range of characterful Chablis!
