Domaine Vrignaud Chablis 1er Cru 'Fourchaume' 2019

Domaine Vrignaud Chablis 1er Cru 'Fourchaume' 2019 - this basically translates to top-quality Chardonnay from the Fourchame vineyard in Chablis.

The vineyard itself is only 4 hectares, located near the commune of Fontenay-Près-Chablis on the banks of the Serein river. Good vineyard aspects but more importantly, vine age of 25 years plus. Meaning the vines can produce high-end grapes with great value for money. 

The winemaking here focuses on pristine fruit, mouthfeel and texture. Stainless steel ferment, wild yeast with a lot of time on lees. Full malolactic fermentation softens the acid and adds concentration and complexity.

Rich golden colour, smoky and flinty tones with a lot of lemon and green apples. Textured and rich palate, long scented long and lick of yoghurt and cream.
