RATINGS

95James Suckling

Stunning quince and pear fruit is counterpointed by an intense stony minerality that drives this concentrated, medium-bodied structure. Long, vibrant and tense finish that’s really exciting.

93Wine Spectator

A vibrant style, featuring peach, pear, floral and mineral aromas and flavors. This white is intense and balanced, with vivid acidity and a stony element driving the long aftertaste.

REGION

France, Burgundy, Chablis, Fourchaume

Fourchaume is a Premier Cru vineyard located just to the north of Chablis’ Grand Crus. The 84-acre hillside parcel is considered one of the best of the Chablis Premier Crus, and some people feel it should be elevated to Grand Cru. Within Fourchaume there are several important climats, or sub-parcels, including Vaupulent, Cote de Fontenay, L’Homme Mort and Vaulorent. The Fourchaume soil is primarily a composition of limestone, clay and fossilized oyster shells.

TYPE

White Wine, Chardonnay, Chablis Premier Cru

This white variety originated in Burgundy, but is now grown around the world. Its flexibility to thrive in many regions translates to wide flavor profile in the market. Chardonnay is commonly used in making Champagne and sparkling wines.
