CLOTILDE DAVENNE CHABLIS 1ER CRU MONTMAINS 2022

Style: Rocks & Minerals

Meeting Clotilde Davenne and trying all her wines from the Petit Chablis to her best Grand Cru vineyards made things very clear: she knows what she is doing. Clotilde was not from a wine family, her father was a humble farmer near the Morvan mountains. She learned how to make wine at school in 1986 and later travelled to California for vintage. In 1989, Davennes journey in Chablis started, working for one of the regions star producers- Jean-Marc Brocard. During a incredible 17 years with mentor Brocard, she gained an intimate knowledge of unique terroir and understanding of vintage styles. MOSAIQUE WINES Importer

Her lively Premier cru Montmains combines the minerality and the tension of its terroir. Richness, with notes of quince and plenty of texture on the palate. The vineyard expresses itself showing balance, elegance and great acidic drive. The finish is beautiful, evolving on your palate. The vinification is traditional. The grapes are pressed with a pneumatic press, followed by fermentation in stainless steel to express the terroir of Montmains. Ageing on lees for 12 months.
