Tasting Notes
On the opposite flank of the Valvan valley to Les Vaillons, and with a deep soil of ‘blue clay’ and plenty of limestone rocks, Montmains is commonly held to produce ‘textbook’ Chablis of minerality and verve. This is from 0.65 hectares of very old vines, 70 years old on average, in the lieux-dits of Vaux Miolot and Le Bout de Butteaux.
At this stage, it’s often the most aromatically complex and alluring of the Premier Crus. Deep, with a sweet, flowing texture that’s shot through with mouthwatering, crystalline freshness and superb, phenolic grip on the close. A Chablis lover’s Chablis par excellence. Can't wait to revisit this in a few years. - Importer Note
Less is more! Minimal intervention or Lo-fi wines encapsulate those producers who keep additions and manipulations to a minimum during the winemaking process. This means the wines are wild fermented, unfiltered and unfined, and only add sulfur during the process.
