Description

Jean Dauvissat Montmains 2023: an elegant, gourmet Premier Cru

The Chablis Premier Cru Montmains 2023 demonstrates the full extent of Domaine Jean Dauvissat’s expertise in crafting great white Burgundy wines. Produced exclusively from Chardonnay, this Premier Cru benefits from a terroir renowned for producing wines that are at once refined, crisp and intensely mineral. Meticulous winemaking, combined with carefully controlled ageing on lees, preserves all the freshness of the fruit and the character of the Montmains climat.

The bouquet combines notes of candied lemon, grapefruit zest, green apple, pear, hawthorn blossom and white-fleshed fruits. Hints of flint, oyster shell and fresh almond further enrich this aromatic palette. On the palate, the wine impresses with its balance between fullness, tension and liveliness. The texture is silky, underpinned by perfectly integrated acidity that lends energy and length. The finish, fresh, briny and mineral, reflects all the nobility of the great terroirs of Chablis.

This Premier Cru is the ideal accompaniment to seafood, shellfish, line-caught fish, sushi, Bresse poultry in cream sauce or mature goat’s-milk cheeses. It can be enjoyed now or laid down for around ten years to reveal the full richness of its terroir.
