- A lively, suave, mineral Chablis with citrus, floral, and herbaceous notes lead to a fresh and crisp palate with lovely weight and a flinty note on the finish. Following the challenging 2021, 2022 was a warm vintage with good yields. After a milder and drier-than-usual winter, the spring frosts made a reappearance at the end of March. However, the vines developed later than in previous years, and the damage's extent was not comparable to 2021. The exceptionally warm spring with high temperatures in May encouraged vegetation and flowering, which occurred at the end of May under excellent conditions. Summer was hot and dry, resulting in healthy vineyards and excellent maturation with a great balance between alcohol and acidity at harvest.
Wine producing region: Bourgogne Grape variety: Chardonnay Soil: Clay and Limestone Vintage: Hand harvest Winemaking: Limit of inputs, yeasts and bacteria in part natural, cold settling for 24 to 48 hours, fermentation malolactic in barrels. Ageing process: Ageing in stainless steel during 9 to 12 months, which is 10% to 20% of new barrels. Known for the high quality of its wines, this pale gold Chablis has aromas of flint, citrus, white flowers, linden, and acacia. His attack is lively and straight and evolves towards a suavity, a persistent and mineral finish.

| Winery | Michel Gayot grew up surrounded by vineyards and spent his childhood among the vines. He has what he calls a visceral attachment to the earth and what it offers if nurtured and taken care of. This value was installed in Michel by his parents, who passed on their passion of cultivating the Burgundy terroir to Michel and his siblings. After studying management, Michel started his career in the world of wine trading, both abroad and in France. He then acquired the vineyard in the heart of Burgundy, which he now takes care of, in addition to the family estate in Beaujolais. He strives to achieve excellent typicity in his wines, with expressive minerality in his whites and delicacy and finesse in his reds |
