Domaine du Colombier Chablis
£19.07
Grape variety: 100% Chardonnay
Guy Mothe built up the highly successful Domaine du Colombier by starting with a tiny holding and then acquiring small parcels of land that came up for sale over the years. Today the domaine has 33 hectares of vineyards and is run by Guy`s son, Thierry. Most of the vineyards are dedicated to the production of AC Chablis, though there are significant holdings in Premier Cru Fourchaume and Grand Cru Bourgros. This is a first-class source of pure, unoaked, mineral-laden AC Chablis.
Tasting notes:
Soft green apple cuts through chalky tannins and plenty of mineral character, with some slightly creamy notes and a drop of honey.
