Burgundy's Chablis region has built an international reputation for its elegant and crisp Chardonnay-based wines that often see little to no oak aging, allowing the purity of fruit to shine entirely on its own. Domaine du Chardonnay sourced grapes from the premier cru vineyard of Vaillons for their 2017 bottling and showcases a bouquet that is both delicate and expansive with intense minerality and a beautiful melange of white blossoms, citrus, and tropical fruit. If you're a fan of crystal clear, mouthwatering white Burgundy, this is the wine for you!

A.O.C Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons

Producer Notes
Domaine du Chardonnay farms 38 hectares on vineyards. The grape harvest is vinified and raised in our wineries Chablis itself. Just as the vineyards of Chablis are a blend of tradition and modern techniques, our vinification is based on age-old respect for nature's products - the grapes, the must and the wine - allied with the stringent controls and in-depth skills that the development of oenological techniques offers us. The process of vinification is guided by respect for the terroirs, the vintages, the age of the vines and the state of health of the grapes, in other words, adapted for every Cuvee.
