This lovely cuvée is the only Burgundy appellation to produce a 100% Sauvignon white, with fresh white flowers and citrus aromas, predominantly muscatel. It confirms this first impression of freshness and lightness, with a lovely lemony persistence on the palate... Always excellent value for money!

Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Domain rated (2020 guide) 2*Stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more regular and homogeneous than the previous one)
About the domain :
Chablis' leading producer always delivers a faithful interpretation of the appellation, thanks to the precise, meticulous work of oenologist Vincent Bartement. As always, the wines are presented with a vintage gap, this year 2016, a complicated vintage but one in which Mont-de-Milieu fares very well. Other terroirs that are usually successful at the winery are tasting a little less well, so let's wait for the 2017s!

About the domain :
La Chablisienne, a cooperative winery founded in 1923, brings together almost 300 winegrowers and represents a quarter of the Chablis vineyards. It celebrated its 90th anniversary in 2013. A modern, high-performance structure that makes a major contribution to the appellation's reputation. The Grenouilles Grand Cru is one of its flagship wines.

About the domain :
The largest producer in Chablis is one of France's finest cooperatives, as adept at sales as it is at winemaking. Among the many cuvées produced, it is necessary to know how to sort out the best, but all the wines benefit today from perfect technical mastery in pressing and ageing on lees. The great specialties are the Chablis Vieilles Vignes, with its great consistency, and the heavy-bottled Premier Crus, which rival the best produced by private cellars, not forgetting the famous Grand Cru Château Grenouilles, which should not be drunk too young! The entry-level wines have made good progress, losing their characteristic notes of reduction. La Chablisienne is in fine form!

Well-made, fresh, not too vegetal, a fine Sauvignon! As an aperitif, with a salad or a simple starter.

Note and review by M. MATHIEU B. Published on 04/11/2013
Light color, discreet nose, pleasant minerality on the palate, slightly saline with a finish supported by acidity. The wine is well established.
