White Wine | Chablis La Croix Saint Joseph | J. Moreau & Fils

$1,190

   Chardonnay.

   Chablis is the most famous and fascinating white wine region in the world, known for its inherent exposure to frosts that have threatened entire harvests on more than one occasion. Hence, its wines are known as the “Chardonnay of the cold.” These are the fine white wines of France, originating from limestone soils also known as Kimmeridgian, containing remnants of fossilized shells, a terroir formula that has shaped the unique flavor and aroma of Chablis wines.

   Pale golden yellow with slight green tones, bright, and with a crystalline body.

   Fresh and delicate aroma reminiscent of green apple, with floral hints of honey and almond, and subtle notes of fresh butter. Underlying mineral notes of flint. It expresses itself on the palate with a gentle acidity that is lively yet precise. Confirms notes of apple and citrus. Very consistent and delicate finish.

   Magnificent as an aperitif. Also pairs well with shellfish, especially shellfish, harmonizes equally well with poultry, creamy sauces, and butter-based dishes. It will be delightful with regional cheeses from northern France such as Saint Marcelin or Pont L’Eveque.
