Domaine Denis Race Chalblis 1er Cru Montmains 2023
$32.99
About the winery: This 45 acre estate is situated in the heart of the city of Chablis and includes four appellations: Chablis AOC , Chablis Mont de Milieu 1er Cru, Chablis Montmains 1er Cru, and Chablis Vaillons 1er Cru. The family-owned and managed Domaine Race is today in the capable hands of fourth-generation Claire Race, winemaker and daughter of Denis and Laurence Race. The farming is essentially organic (lutte raisonée), and the vines are well-situated and range in age up to 83 years. The fruit is picked at optimum ripeness and, purity being the principal objective, wood is never involved: the wine is fermented and aged in stainless steel.
WInemaker's Tasting Notes: "A stunning, hand-crafted premier cru Chablis from this wonderful family estate. This is classic Chablis: precise, pure, and driven. Velvety citrus fruit gives way to textbook chalk, slate, and stone. Elegant, fresh, and mineral, this deep-flavored wine has intense aromas of citrus with some hints of peach."
Varietal: Chardonnay
