The wine region of Chablis 1er Cru 'Fourchaume'
Flagship Premier Cru climat on the right bank of the Serein (Homme Mort, Vaupulent, Cote de Fontenay, Vaulorent): 100% Chardonnay on clay-limestone soils between 130 and 200 m, west/south-west exposure. Whites prized for sensuality and ripe fruit — golden robe with green reflections, honeyed aromas of acacia, almond and hazelnut, mineral notes of gunflint and undergrowth. Cellaring 3-10 years, one of the most generous Premiers Crus.
The wine region of Burgundy
Absolute reference for great terroir wines: opulent, mineral Chardonnay in whites (chiselled Chablis, buttery Meursault, majestic Montrachet), fine and silky Pinot Noir in reds (full-bodied Gevrey, structured Pommard, delicate Volnay). Exceptional age-worthy wines with complex notes - red fruits, undergrowth, butter, hazelnut. Some lively Aligoté and light Gamay (Mâconnais). 29,500 ha, 84 tiered AOCs (Régionale, Village, 1er Cru, Grand Cru), 1,247 UNESCO Climats.
The word of the wine: Concentrator
A device that removes water from grape must by reverse osmosis or entropy system. Its proponents say that it is better to remove water than to add sugar to produce more alcohol. The improperly used concentrator can also exaggerate bad tastes or greenness of tannins.
