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).

Some lively Aligoté and light Gamay (Mâconnais). 29,500 ha, 84 tiered AOCs (Régionale, Village, 1er Cru, Grand Cru), 1,247 UNESCO Climats.
