Robert Parker

Neal Martin

The 2014 Chablis 1Er Cru Fourchaume has a Zen-like, clean and fresh, slate-scented bouquet that draws you in. The palate is fresh and vibrant with a lovely saline undertow, subtle at first and then flourishing toward the bravura finish with copious citrus fruit and plenty of spice. There is a lot going on in this Chablis and it should age with style.

Le Figaro Vin

A beautiful dense, oaky wine with depth and good body, but with bitterness from the oak.

Description

The balance and richness of a white wine from Chablis 1er Cru

The estate

Founded in 1923 in Burgundy, La Chablisienne is the largest producer of Chablis wines and one of the most renowned winemaking cooperative in France.

The vineyard

La Chablisienne's Chablis 1er Cru "Fourchaume" is a Chablis wine made from vines that are 25 years old on average. This wine benefits from a terroir that perfectly characterises its appellation. The soils and subsoils are composed of middle and upper Kimmeridgian, with alternating limestone and marl with Exogyra Virgula.

Vinification and ageing

This Chablis 1er cru is aged for 12 months on fine lees, in vats and barrels.

The blend

Chardonnay (100%).
