Tasting notes

Elegant and fine-boned, the 2018 Chablis 1er Cru Côte de Léchet confirms its strong showing last year, unfurling in the glass with notes of spring flowers, white currants and citrus oil. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, satiny, and incisive, with a tensile core and a precise, mineral finish.

About this wine

La Chablisienne - Chablis - Côte de Léchet - 1er Cru

La Chablisienne is a renowned producer of Chablis wines, and their Côte de Léchet 1er Cru is a standout example of the quality that can be achieved in this region. Made from 100% Chardonnay grapes, this wine is a pale gold color with green highlights.

On the nose, the Côte de Léchet 1er Cru has aromas of white flowers, citrus, and a hint of minerality. On the palate, it is crisp and refreshing, with flavors of lemon, green apple, and a subtle nuttiness. The finish is long and elegant, with a touch of salinity that is characteristic of Chablis wines.

La Chablisienne has a long history of winemaking in the Chablis region, dating back to 1923. They are known for their commitment to quality and their use of traditional winemaking techniques. The Côte de Léchet vineyard is located on a steep slope with a south-east exposure, which allows the grapes to ripen fully and develop complex flavors.

This wine is perfect for pairing with seafood, particularly oysters, as well as light salads and creamy cheeses. It is best served chilled, at around 10-12°C.
