Crafted solely from hand-harvested Chardonnay grapes, Domaine Altugnac Chardonnay undergoes fermentation and aging in stainless steel tanks, complete with malolactic fermentation, ensuring the preservation of its freshness and varietal essence. Despite hailing from a warm region, winemakers Jean-Luc and Christian masterfully maintain acidity, tension, and vibrancy in this white wine. This particular vintage bears a striking resemblance to Chablis, boasting a pale straw hue and aromas reminiscent of lemon confit, white flowers, green apple, white peach, and yuzu. On the palate, it is bright and invigorating, enveloped by a mineral core that culminates in a lifted finish.

White Wine2021 Chablis, Domaine de la Genillotte
£2200Add to BasketDomaine de la Genillotte produce excellent value Chablis from their 16 hectares of vineyards in the village of Lignorelles in the north-west of the region.
Winemaker David Depuydt makes Chablis as it should be; mineral, fresh and light but with interest and texture. Think flavours of lemon, pea shoot and green apple, it’s got racy acidity but not a hint of bitterness. Aromatic and vibrant, with ample stone fruit, rounded and supple with that essential clean, mineral freshness. Pairs well with pork, rich fish (salmon, tuna etc), shellfish, mild and soft cheese.
