Albert Pic Chablis Premier Cru Mont de Milieu

This is a Chablis Premier Cru from Albert Pic, made from Chardonnay grown on the Mont de Milieu vineyard. The site lies on the right bank of the Serein, on the boundary between the communes of Chablis and Fleys, on limestone soils close to the Grand Cru Les Clos. Fermentation and ageing are managed to keep the fruit and the freshness of Chablis in the foreground. The wine is a bright pale straw. The nose combines citrus, green apple and white flowers with a flinty, mineral edge. On the palate, balanced acidity carries fresh fruit and minerality through to a long, clean finish.
