La Meuliere Chablis Premier Cru

A Premier Cru Chablis wine from the 24 hectare La Meuliere estate in Burgundy, France. The best grapes are hand harvested from the superior Les Forneaux vineyards for this Premier Cru, which is unoaked as tradition dictates. An expressive bouquet of delicate floral and fruit aromas, revealing grapefruit, juicy citrus and soft peach, with a refined minerality of the 'gunflint' and slight smoke that Chablis is known for. The mineral aspect is dominant on the palate, but is balanced by typical fresh citrus fruit, ripe apple, floral notes and a satisfying firmness in the mouth. The perfect aperitif or pair with platters of cold meat, seafood or oysters.

Domaine De La Meuliere produce a range of Chablis wines from their 13th century cellar in Fleys, practising sustainable cultivation techniques, hand harvesting, and natural wine-making methods.

The Premier Cru Chablis appellation has vineyards that are wholly made up of the excellent Kimmeridgian soil. These soils prevalent across the region have a larger proportion of clay marl, limestone, and marine fossils, with Premier and Grand Cru locations utilising the best. This terroir provides the Chardonnay grape and the wines produced with the famous 'gunflint' mineral character.
