The wine region of Chablis 1er Cru 'Forês'
Premier Cru climat on the left bank of the Serein (Chablis), Montmains sub-group, flat at foot and steep at top: 100% Chardonnay with marked ripe fruit tempered by a taut, almost robust structure, close to neighbouring Grand Cru Blanchot. Exceptional south-south-east exposure. Poor Kimmeridgian marl-limestone soils rich in Exogyra virgula oyster fossils providing signature minerality. Natural acidity, ageing 5–8 years.
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: Oenographer
Wine label collector. It is becoming increasingly difficult to obtain the labels of famous vintages, which thus seek to avoid forgeries.
