Château de Maligny Chablis 1er Cru Montmains

Vinum Lector Staff — Tue, 05 Sep 2023 14:05:00 +0000

TECHNICAL DATA
Alcohol 12.5%

APPEARANCE
Yellow-gold in color.

NOSE
Floral, earthy and spicy, with great density, heightened finesse and minerality.

PALATE
The taste of wine is fresh, elegant, balanced, with hints of white fruits and a harmonious finish. However the Chablis Premier Cru “Montmain” is a slightly heavier wine than the other Chablis. Deep and very subtle, its characteristics are often close to those of the greatest white wines of the Côte d’Or.

VINIFICATION
Wood is not used in order to remain close to the terroir and the traditional aromas of Chablis wines.

PAIRING
This Chablis 1er Cru will be an excellent couple of risotto, monkfish curry, grilled shellfish and seafood in general. Perfect with perfectly with cheese, especially goat’s cheese, Coulommiers or Brie.

Château de Maligny Chablis 1er Cru Fourchaume

Vinum Lector Staff — Tue, 05 Sep 2023 13:57:12 +0000

The Durup family, winegrowers from father to son, have been cultivating vines in Chablis for fifteen generations. The succession of Jean Durup, who reconstituted the vineyard of Château de Maligny, is ensured by Jean-Paul and Valérie Durup, assisted by Romain Ménissier, operations director. The different wines marketed under the prestigious labels "Château de Maligny", with the best exposures, and "Églantière" all come from the unique variety of grape varieties used in Chablis: Chardonnay. The Chablis Premier Cru Fourchaume is the most famous and the most commercial one of the Premiers Crus of Chablis, due first to its area (130 hectares for 850 hectares of Premiers Crus) and to its closeness to the Grands Crus. With 18 hectares planted in the appellation Chablis Premier Cru Fourchaume, Durup estate is the major producer of this appellation in the area. The wine produced in this appellation is certainly the rounder of all those ones produced in the Chablis vineyard. It is also the suppler but with a good structure typical of the Premiers Crus.

The Durup family, winegrowers from father to son, have been cultivating vines in Chablis for fifteen generations. The succession of Jean Durup, who reconstituted the vineyard of Château de Maligny, is ensured by Jean-Paul and Valérie Durup, assisted by Romain Ménissier, operations director. The different wines marketed under the prestigious labels "Château de Maligny", with the best exposures, and "Églantière" all come from the unique variety of grape varieties used in Chablis: Chardonnay. “La Marche du Roi” is an historical site located between the Premier Cru “Montée de Tonnerre” and the Premier Cru “Mont de Milieu”. In times past, this hill was the border between the Kingdom of France and the Dukedom of Burgundy, from which the name “La Marche du Roi” has been given. The origin of the appellation “Chablis La Marche du Roi” is a historical fact in relation to the Chablisian area, which used to be divided into the royal Domain and the grand duchy of Burgundy. This very steep slope is located in the commune of Chablis and has the advantage of a Southeast exposure, therefore a very beautiful luminosity from morning till the end of afternoon. That gives the wine a very high concentration in fruit. For more info, visit Jean Durup - Château de Maligny website. VARIETALS 100% Chardonnay VINTAGE 2022 Download Tasting Note
