Chablis Grand Cru Blanchot, Domaine Vrignaud, 2016
- White Still
- 75cl
Domaine Vrignaud Chablis Grand Cru Blanchot has a lifted, granite and smoke-scented bouquet that reveals just a touch of peppermint. It is well defined and vigourous. The palate is clean and fresh on the entry, with a keen thread of acidity pairing the kaleidoscope of white fruit flavours. Quite saline in the mouth but tightly wound on the long, flinty finish.
The 12.7 hectare Les Blanchots vineyard in Chablis is distinguished by elements of blue clay in its soil and it has a south-easterly exposure that tends to produce a very elegant style of wine.
This is one of only two cuvées of Domaine Vrignaud Chablis in our range that spends a period of time in wood. However, the barrels are not new and only 25% of the wine is aged in oak. The rest is matured in stainless steel, resulting in a wine of great power, richness and depth of flavour that retains the fresh and lively tones of its appellation.
