Description
What kind of wine is it
Domaine d’Elise Petit Chablis is a still white wine from Burgundy, capable of precisely reflecting the unique characteristics of its production area. Made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes, this straw-yellow wine stands out for its dry style and pronounced minerality that envelops the palate. The bouquet is fragrant and clean, characterised by delicate citrus aromas and floral notes, enriched by clear hints of flint. On the palate, it reveals a savoury character, supported by a marked freshness that makes the tasting experience extremely pleasant and well-balanced.
Where does it come from
The wine originates in the north of France, within the Burgundy region, in the Petit Chablis area. Here, Chardonnay finds an ideal environment that imparts a distinctive character to the entire flavour profile. The unique nature of the soils gives this wine a clear aromatic purity, resulting in a taut and vertical sip. This interpretation, focused on geological features, enhances the fresh nuances of the grape variety, delivering a clear sensory experience that is true to its original terroir.
How is it produced
Production involves strict vinification in stainless steel, following local methods to preserve the aromatic clarity of the grapes. The absence of barrel ageing allows the wine to maintain a dry profile and maximises its structural savouriness. The wine also has an interesting ageing potential in the bottle, estimated between five and ten years. Ideally served at a temperature between eight and ten degrees, it makes an excellent aperitif and pairs harmoniously with lean fish, seafood, shellfish, and cheeses.

This is the northernmost area of Burgundy, with vineyards grown almost exclusively in Chardonnay that generate dry white wines renowned for their purity and minerality.
The colder climate than the classic Burgundy produces wines with more acidity and less fruity flavors than the Chardonnay of the Côte d'Or, with those notes of "pierre à fusil", and just metallic, which make them as recognizable as pleasant.
Compared to white wines from the heart of Burgundy, Chablis is almost never vinified and aged in wood. Steel in vinification is preferred and the choice of partially or completely wood refining is granted to the individual producer.
The AOC Chablis since 1938 did not include the petit Chablis, which entered then in January 1944. All Chablis vineyards fall into four denominations with different classification levels: only 7 grand Cru are located and all located on a single hill near the town of Chablis. Read more
