Domaine Chavet 2022
$33.50Price
This cuvée originates from a region adjacent to Sancerre and pays homage to the unique terroir where the vines are cultivated, specifically Kimmeridgian soil, which shares similarities with that found in Chablis. The Sauvignon Blanc grapes are harvested slightly later to achieve a deeper flavor profile. Following this, the wine undergoes a 14-month aging process on its lees, with a portion of the cuvée matured in new oak casks. The outcome is an ambitious yet perfectly balanced cuvée that exudes a delightful roundness. It features captivating aromas of citrus, hawthorn, clover flower, and a subtle hint of wood. This exquisite wine pairs wonderfully with lobster or white fish prepared with white butter.
