The 2015 Chablis 1er Cru Mont de Milieu comes courtesy of 30-year-old vines and is matured for nine months, 90% in stainless steel and 10% in new oak. It has an open, generous bouquet with apple blossom, cold limestone and subtle smoky aromas that gain intensity with aeration. The palate is very well balanced, with a citric edge and spicy with hints of nutmeg and white pepper toward the finish that maintains satisfying length and focus. This is very well crafted, tensile and shows commendable terroir expression—a worthy follow-up to the 2014 Fourchaume.
