A Chablis premier cru that has managed to preserve a perfect balance between the delicate nature of the grape variety, the minerality of its terroir and the texture conferred by its vinification. More info

Located not too far from the Les Fôrets premier cru, Montmain is a premier cru that benefits from a soil of clay and chalk. The Chardonnay from which it is made is over forty years old and grown exposed to the east and south-east. The domain opted for alcoholic and malolactic fermentation as well as maturation on fine lees in used, oak barrels. Thus, the wine preserves the freshness and delicate character of its grapes all while revealing gently spicy notes and a persistent finish.

Chablis 1er Cru Montmain Pinson Frères (Domaine) serve at a temperature of 12°C. It will pair perfectly with the following dishes: Noix de Saint-Jacques à la fondue de poireaux, Côtes de veau à la crème et aux morilles, Risotto au safran.
