Chablis
Les Deux Rives
After a cold and dry start to the year, temperatures rose quickly at the end of March, triggering a rapid resumption of the growing cycle. A few morning frosts impacted part of the vineyard at the end of April but without major damage. The flowering period takes place in a few days at the beginning of June in superb weather. The summer is hot and sunny but delivers some welcome storm rain to help the plant enter the veraison stage. The harvest takes place at the beginning of September with ideal weather and impeccable health quality of the grapes.
Vineyard
The Petit Chablis appellation is mainly located on soils dating from the Portlandian while the other appellations, Chablis, Chablis Premier Cru and Chablis Grand Cru, developed on the hillsides, are mainly found on Kimmeridgian soils. It is in this particular subsoil, outcropping in places, that Chablis wines draw their typicity, their purity, their finesse, their minerality.
