Description
What kind of wine it is
An authentic expression of Burgundy, this white from Domaine Denis Race elegantly interprets the character of Chablis Premier Cru. Made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes, it displays a bright straw yellow colour. The bouquet offers refined notes of white-fleshed fruit, citrus and honey. On the palate, it reveals a structured freshness and a savoury finish, making it ideal for pairing with seafood, vegetarian dishes and goat's cheeses.
Where it comes from
This wine originates from the renowned Montmains subzone, where the vines sink their roots into a highly prized terroir. The marl and limestone soils, characterised by rich fossil deposits, impart a distinctive mineral character to the taste. Domaine Denis Race manages the estate following strict organic and sustainable practices to protect the ecosystem and ensure high expressive quality.
How it is produced
The process begins with a careful mechanical harvest, designed to preserve the primary aromas of the grapes. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. Maturation continues in steel, ensuring maximum aromatic precision and maintaining the wine's tension. Best served chilled, this wine has excellent ageing potential to evolve harmoniously over time.
