Chablis Premier Cru Butteaux « Vielles Vignes »

Chablis Premier Cru Butteaux « Vielles Vignes »

With a prime position in the heart of the Butteaux vineyards, this over 60-year-old parcel, whose yields are slowly diminishing, deserves its separate vinification and maturation and delivers wonderful wines worthy of a Grand Cru vineyard. 

Vinification & Maturation

In stainless steel tanks, for at least 12 months.

Tasting notes

It opens with notes of condensed milk, acacia flowers and liquorice. On the palate, maritime saline flavours precede a warm finish, with jam and peach, baked apples, and tarte Tatin.
