Domaine de la Mandeliere
Chablis
Chablis
Chablis
Chardonnay
A very expressive nose with a perfume of summer flowers, citrus and orchard fruits like apple and pear. A distinctive salty sensation compels the minerality and palate. Medium-bodied with fortitude and persistence in the finish.
POINTS OF INTEREST
Chablis is a unique place because vineyard classification is more closely tied to the geology and soil than in any other region in France. The main substrate is Jurassic limestone, called Kimmeridgian, from over 150 million years ago. The rock contains deposits of tiny, fossilized oyster shells which remind us that Burgundy once lay beneath a warm ocean.

Petit Chablis
Chablis
Chardonnay
Bright and lively on the nose with citrus. One the palate there is great sapidity with volume and balance. This Petite Chablis stands out for having more texture, depth, and length within the Petite classification.
POINTS OF INTEREST
The Appellation for Petit Chablis forms the first level of classification in the Chablis area. With soils dating from the Tithonian age, a little more recent than those of the other appellations in the region, this usually makes for a lighter, more delicate Chardonnay.
