Tasting Note

Its aromatic profile, fine and complete, tends to minerality and white fruits. Also to be found are hints of white flowers, anise and menthol, brioche and sweet spices. On the palate, its lengthy vivacity is prolonged by its saline aspect. Never aggressive, it expresses itself through oyster shell as well as with notes of flint. After 5 to 7 years, its aromatic persistence is enhanced, thereby offering all its power, still balanced by straight-line minerality. It is after 15 years that it acquires incomparable complexity. It is the great lord of the Premier Crus. It will be perfect with grilled lobster.

Product Notes

Jean-Paul and Benoit Droin Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre is a stunning white wine from the Chablis region in France. The vineyard is located on the hills above the town of Chablis, where the soil contains high levels of limestone, clay and mineral deposits. The resulting wine is full-bodied and complex, with a pale gold color and aromas of ripe fruit, honey, and floral notes. On the palate, it displays intense flavors of citrus and yellow fruit, balanced by a refreshing acidity and a long, mineral finish. It is a perfect match for oysters, seafood, and poultry dishes. This wine is a true masterpiece from the Droin family, showcasing their expertise and attention to detail in winemaking.
