Chablis Montmains 1er Cru, Jean-Claude Bessin - 2020

The wines are very clear and fresh, with citrus and white flower aromas. The terroir of Montmains gives the wine its lively, mineral, lemony character. With time, aromas of lime blossom, vine flowers, almond and fresh butter appear. Balanced, pure wines with a memorable, racy finish. Guide Vert RVF: 93/100

They produce wines of a rare purity and make their terroirs sing to the sound of the Kimmeridgian, with Fourchaume and Valmur as their highlights! Here the vinification is totally at the service of the grapes: never any woody notes in these wines which age to perfection, with a vibrant tension which carries them very far in the finish.
