The wine region of Petit Chablis
Outer appellation of the Chablis area (northern Burgundy) on Portlandian soils: signature Chardonnay exclusive as king white — pale gold robe with green tints and crisp signature profile with notes of hawthorn, acacia, citrus, green apple and a discreet mineral touch of flint and gunflint, dynamic palate balanced by freshness, chiselled acidity and lovely iodine roundness. AOC (1944), Portlandian limestones less fossil-rich than Kimmeridgian, high hillside, drink young.
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: Draft liquor (champagne)
After blending, the wine is bottled with a liqueur de tirage (a mixture of sugar and wine) and a yeast (selected yeasts). The yeast attacks the sugar and creates carbon dioxide. The fermentation, which lasts about two months, is prolonged by an ageing period (15 months minimum in total). The bottle is capped (some rare vintages are capped with a staple and a cork).
