Domaine de Chevallier Chablis - £21.99

t took a while to find the village of Montallery but the outstanding Chablis that we tasted at the cellars of Claude and Jean-Louis Chevallier were more than worth the journey. One glance at their immaculate cellars and it became clear that the brothers were fastidious about cleanliness and extremely serious about Chablis. The village level Chablis only sees stainless steel and the crisp, pure flavours and minerality come solely from the soil and the grape - this is superb 'basic' Chablis. We recommend anyone who hasn't tried a Chablis for a while, let alone a decent one, to buy a case of this wine - it will make a believer out of you again.

2007 Chablis
The village level Chablis is fermented and aged in stainless steel prior to bottling, it sees no oak barrels at all, and the crisp, pure flavours and minerality come solely from the soils of Chablis and the grape. Crisp apple fruit with underlying flint notes and good weight. Wine like this should be compulsory!
