Petit Chablis 2023

Petit Chablis, France

Chardonnay (100%) · 2023 · 12.5% abv

Bright and zesty, with lemon peel, green apple, and a saline edge that recalls sea spray despite its inland origin. A lean, energetic palate crackles with acidity, finishing with a snap of citrus pith.

Production

Fermented and aged in stainless steel to preserve fruit clarity. Certified organic; bottled without fining, filtration, or excess sulphur. The result is a raw yet precise snapshot of Chardonnay in its most stripped-back form.

Vineyard

From higher slopes and plateau edges at 230–280 m. Brown limestone soils with streaks of sandy silt give freshness over weight, while mixed exposures add nuance. Cool nights preserve the crisp, lively cut.

Pairing

Shines with oysters, sashimi, grilled sardines, or fried river fish. Surprisingly deft with omelettes and andouillettes, and cuts through the richness of gougères or aged goat cheese.
