Tasting Notes
If there's one grand cru that stands out for this prestigious Burgundy domaine, it's definitely Les Preuses! A magnificent straw-yellow to golden color, with great brilliance and clarity. After 15 minutes in the decanter, the nose develops a wide and very interesting range of aromas: white flowers, flint and great minerality. The palate is broad and ample on the attack, with impressive volume. Magnificent texture with a finesse and power worthy of the greatest Chablis.
This wine is definitely a grand cru that stands out, and a great tasting experience! -
Vinification and Aging
Vinification and ageing for 12 months: 30% in (new) barrels and 70% in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats. After blending, ageing continues on fine lees for 6 months (approx.); the wine is then bottled after very light filtration, and stored in our air-conditioned cellars before release.

Terroir
Our CHABLIS GRAND CRU LES PREUSES enjoys an exceptional location on a southwest-facing hillside, overlooking the neighboring Grands Crus.
The soils are a mixture of Kimmeridgian marl and limestone, and are deeper, allowing the vines to root even deeper and make the most of this special terroir.
The wines are harmonious and generous, but need to be cellared for a few years before their subtlety and complexity can be appreciated. -
