Product notes
L&C POITOUT is resolutely committed to the respect of Nature studying biodiversity, setting up of new hedgerows, limiting inputs, recycling effluents, working the soil... The level 3 High Environmental Value label was thus easily obtained in 2018. The Sycomore Petit Chablis cuvée comes from "Sur les Clos": 1.40 hectares located in Chablis, including the "Paul" parcel. It is a place where it is always warm with a light wind, one feels good there. The vine takes root in a good lean soil with small stones situated on a well exposed plateau.
Production notes
The juice benefits from a static settling until an optimal turbidity is obtained. The Alcoholic fermentation is quick and malolactic fermentation complete. It was aged in thermo-regulated vats at the L&C Poitout Winery in the heart of Chablis. Like all Chardonnay of the Domaine, it is aged without barrel in order to highlight only the values of its terroir.
Tasting notes
With its light straw color, this Petit Chablis presents a complex nose of citrus fruits, ginger and flint, oscillating between purity and greediness. Its lively mouth is the expression of a great minerality, characteristic of Chardonnay. Food and wine pairing: Perfect for a tasting with friends, as an aperitif or to accompany a few oysters.
