It’s WHITE. It’s FRESH. It’s SUPERB…
This Chablis expresses the mineraility of the chalky Kimmeridgian limestone soils infamous with the region. The husband and wife team behind this Chablis also produce the Jaeger Defaix Rully Rouge. Their care and patience can be tasted in all their wines. Only the first press is used for this wine, it is then fermented in stainless steel where it spends a further 8 months of its lees to add texture and richness. There is no oak ageing in order to preserve the fresh citrus flavours, gunflint aroma and beautiful minerality.
Imagine the freshness of mountain water hitting smooth stone. That, in a bottle. Sit back and let this slip down. Heaven.
