Chablis Grand Cru Valmur

Cool racking. Aging: 55% of the aging process is done in stainless vats. 45% in barrels (90% in 1,2 and 3 years old barrels, 10% in new and 1 year old barrels) for a period of six months. Natural tartaric stabilisation after 12 months of aging.

The slopes, like those of all the Grands Crus vines, are located on the right bank of the Serein River. This terroir form a valley between Les Clos and Vaudésir. Our parcels are located in two exposures, one in the north-west exposure (30 ares), and one in the south-east exposure (70 ares). Density plantation: 7000 vines/ha. Average age of the vines: 50 years.

Vinous Magazine - The Valmur Grand Cru is subtle, nuanced and very pretty. Orchard fruit, chamomile, light honeyed notes and an accent of French oak all run through this pliant, racy Valmur. Soft edges add to the wine's considerable immediacy and overall appeal.
