Alain Geoffroy Chablis 1er Cru Beauroy 2024

Alain Geoffroy’s 2024 Chablis Premier Cru Beauroy is a still Chardonnay from one of Chablis’s distinguished Premier Cru sites, combining ripe fruit and floral character with the appellation’s hallmark mineral freshness. The Geoffroy estate dates to 1850 and has deep roots in Chablis’s winemaking tradition.

Tasting Notes
Clear straw yellow with subtle green highlights, it opens with floral aromas and hints of summer fruit. The palate is full and rounded, balanced by lively freshness and a distinctly salty, mineral note, leading to a persistent finish. Its freshness and structure should allow it to develop over the next few years when stored well.

Production
The Chardonnay comes from estate vineyards between Beine and La Chapelle-Vaupelteigne, where 30- to 45-year-old vines grow in Kimmeridgian limestone marl rich in fossilised oyster shells. The grapes are hand-harvested and gently pressed; the must settles for 24 hours in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks before fermentation. Complete malolactic fermentation is followed by several months of ageing on fine lees, preserving precision while adding complexity.

Food & Serving
Serve lightly chilled, around 10–12°C, with oysters, shellfish, grilled fish or roast chicken. Its mineral, saline character also suits goat’s cheese. Decanting is not essential; if desired, give the wine a brief airing before serving.

Producer
Founded in 1850, Alain Geoffroy is a family estate with a long connection to Chablis and vineyards around Beine and La Chapelle-Vaupelteigne. The family also celebrates the region’s winemaking heritage through a museum housing more than 8,000 historic tools. Its work with Chablis’s Kimmeridgian soils reflects the close relationship between the region’s geology and its wines.
