$35.00

The Chantemerle Boudin 1er Cru Fourchaume 2021, crafted by winemaker Francis Boudin of Domaine de Chantemerle, is a remarkable example of Chablis, showcasing the winery's commitment to natural and authentic winemaking. Adhering to a "barrel-free Chablis" philosophy, this wine avoids any oak influence, emphasizing the purity of Chardonnay. The Boudin Chablis is distinguished by its citrus-inspired flavors, pure aromas, and a tangy, mouth-watering finish. The wine also features an intense vein of minerality and a plush coat of white and yellow fruits. Its aroma profile includes fresh apricots, lemon oil, white blossoms, and chalk dust. On the palate, it is medium-bodied yet lively, with flavors of lemons, limes, and sea salt. This wine is hand-harvested, pressed full cluster, and fermented on indigenous yeasts in temperature-controlled tanks. It is aged in tank (with no barrel aging) and bottled unfined and unfiltered, highlighting the older vines and classic terroir of the region, which contributes to its concentrated and elegant character. Moreover, the Boudin 'Fourchaume' Chablis 1er Cru 2021 presents a bouquet scented with fresh melon and grapefruit, characterized by clean and pure notes and great minerality. The palate balances a saline entry with a slightly serious and spicy finish. The wine is produced from 40-year-old vines, grown in classic Kimmeridgian soil rich in fossils and stones, and is made entirely in tanks and left unfiltered. his detailed description of the Chantemerle Boudin 1er Cru Fourchaume 2021 highlights the unique approach to winemaking at Domaine de Chantemerle, as well as the distinct characteristics that make this Chablis stand out.
