Grand Calcaire Petit Chablis Branco

Description

Edouard Delaunay Appellation: AOP Petit Chablis Terroir Carefully selected grapes, grown in cool vineyard plots on the Chablis plateau. The brown Portlandian limestone, unlike the Kimmeridgian limestone that forms the soil of the Chablis appellation, contains no fossilized oysters. The plateau's altitude and cool nights preserve the grapes' acidity, producing wines that are lively and expressive. Vinification and Ageing The grapes were harvested at the peak of ripeness. The grape must is precisely clarified before fermenting 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, with the lees stirred once a week during the first two months to create greater complexity. Frequent tastings ensure the optimal development of the organoleptic qualities before the final blending stage. Food 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 chilled, between 8 and 10°C, to preserve its bright vivacity and allow the aromatic expression to shine. Allergen Information Contains sulphites. SKU: 107969
