Tasting Note
Crisp, lean Chablis: lime and lemon peel, green apple and white peach, with flinty/stony minerality and a saline oyster-shell finish. Bright citrus acidity and precise, refreshing drive.

Food Pairing
Western: oysters, scallops, grilled white fish, ceviche, goat cheese, lemon-roast chicken. Asian: sushi/sashimi, tempura, steamed fish with ginger & scallion, Thai lime/seafood salads, light Korean seafood pancakes.

Production Method
Hand-harvested Chardonnay; fermented and aged principally in stainless steel (some parcels in concrete); typically using cultured yeast; little-to-no new oak; bottled early to preserve freshness.

Vineyard Info
Small family domaine based in Milly (run by Vincent, with family roots in the region). Focus on sustainable viticulture and pure, mineral-driven expressions of Chablis from older parcels.
