PETIT CHABLIS

2015 Domaine Denis Pommier

Grapes Chardonnay
Colour White
Origin France, Burgundy
District Chablis
ABV 12.5%

Bottled in July 2016. Nice and sparky but it is the weight of fruit and ripeness that overwhelms, A broad hit of gently cooked apple, some nice spice too makes this immensely pleasing and it will appeal to many, perhaps Chablis purists will think this resembles something from further south, but no one can deny it is a very satisfying and enjoyable bottle of wine even if it is imprinted with all the hallmarks of a hot vintage here. L&S (Nov 2016)

A fresh, ripe and reasonably layered nose combines notes of citrus and pear with just enough Chablis typicity to make this interesting. The rich and relatively dense middle weight flavors are both generously proportioned and delicious while exhibiting a subtle minerality on the moderately dry and persistent finale.

Domaine Denis Pommier

Founded when the Pommiers inherited 2 hectares of vines in 1990. Isabelle and Denis bottled their first wine in 1994 and now have 23 hectares of vineyards, which are certified organic (which sadly cost them dearly in terms of lost crop in 2016 and 2017) and run according to biodynamic principles. Further reading is available in the form of Denis' book 'Les Larmes de Ma Vigne', published in 2020.

The Petit Chablis is a model of brisk freshness - made entirely in stainless steel - while the Premier Crus in benefit from a small amount of barrel-fermentation and élevage. The two named 'lieu-dits' of Chablis 'village', Les Reinettes and Croix aux Moines, are about a hectare in total. The Troësmes is within the larger premier cru 'Beauroy'. The Pommiers think this 'best bit' deserves to be identified by its correct name. It is relatively rounder, while the Côte de Léchet is the one for fans of the slatier, crystalline side of minerality. Keep either of the premiers crus for four to six years.
