Domaine Louis Michel & Fils Chablis 1er Cru Sechet 2020
In the past, Premier Cru Séchets was vinified with Vaillons, but this wine has been made separately since 2010. Its aromatic richness, complexity and sharp minerality make it an excellent Premier Cru for ageing. It comes from a magnificent terroir widely considered one of the best in Chablis, producing powerful and defined wines from the Chardonnay grape variety. A great Premier Cru from a unique Domaine.

Colour

Straw yellow with golden reflections.

Bouquet

Hints of green apple and lemon combine with significant mineral traces and hints of aromatic herbs.

Flavour

Excellent acidic vein, it is long in persistence and precise in its finish.

Pairing

Fish
Shellfish
Cheese
Matured cheese
Poultry

Origin Sechet, Chablis wine region. The vineyard overlooks the town of Chablis, sitting atop the hill that houses the Vaillons Premier Cru vineyard. Sechet is one of several vineyards on this hill that may invoke the Vaillons Premier Cru title instead of its own, Vaillons being the best-known name in the area.
Climate Exposure: South-East. The vineyards are exposed to a gentle morning sun that is less intense than that felt on the steeper slopes to the West. Sechet has a cooler microclimate as a result, with a long, slow ripening period that allows the grapes to retain their characteristic acidity while still developing aromatic complexity.
Soil composition Kimmeridgian subsoil. Rich in limestone, clay, marl and marine fossils.
Ageing In stainless steel tanks, for at least 12 months.
Allergens Contains sulphites
