Chanson Pere & Fils Chablis Grand Cru Valmur Branco

Description

“Chanson Pere & Fils don’t just make wine; they seem to consult the weather gods! A relentlessly hot summer, with those lovely diurnal shifts, ensures that the early-September-picked Chardonnay grapes reach peak ripeness. Following a gentle pressing, the wine rests in caves dating back to the 15th century, with a maximum of 14 months in new oak – a touch that remarkably balances the wine’s inherent mineral character, reflecting the distinct terroir of Valmur. It’s a wine best paired with seafood, perhaps grilled scallops with garlic, to really highlight its complexity.”
