Edouard Delaunay Branco

Description

Edouard Delaunay Appellation: AOP Petit Chablis Terroir Carefully selected grapes, grown in cool parcels located on the Chablis plateau. The brown Portlandian limestone, unlike the Kimmeridgian limestone that makes up the soil of the Chablis appellation, does not contain fossilized oysters. The plateau's altitude and cool nights preserve the grapes' acidity, resulting in lively and expressive wines. Winemaking and Ageing The grapes were harvested at the peak of ripeness. The grape must is precisely clarified before being fermented mainly in stainless steel tanks, with careful monitoring of temperature and fermentation kinetics (<18°C). The wine is then aged on fine lees for 15 months, which are stirred once a week during the first two months to create even greater complexity. Frequent tastings ensure the optimal development of the organoleptic qualities before the final blending stage. Pairings Perfect with shellfish and seafood, white fish, as well as grilled white meats (preferably without sauce or with a light touch of cream). It also pairs wonderfully with vegetable terrine or salmon terrine. Best served fresh, between 8 and 10°C, to preserve its brilliant vivacity and allow the aromatic expression to shine.
