Domaine Fourrey Chablis 1er Cru Cote de Lechet 2025

Domaine Fourrey’s Chablis 1er Cru Côte de Lechet 2025 is a poised and mineral-driven Chardonnay from one of Chablis’ most characterful premier cru sites. Known for its tension, precision, and chalky freshness, this is a wine that captures the crisp elegance that has made Chablis a benchmark for cool-climate white Burgundy.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a pale straw color with bright, silvery reflections. The nose is expressive yet refined, offering citrus zest, green apple, white flowers, and a distinct flinty, oyster-shell minerality that reflects the site’s terroir. On the palate, the wine is linear and focused, balancing ripe orchard fruit with brisk acidity and a saline, chalky backbone. Côte de Lechet is often among the more energetic premier crus in Chablis, and this vintage should reward a few years of cellaring, gaining additional depth, texture, and complexity over time.

Production
Côte de Lechet is a steep, well-exposed premier cru vineyard in Chablis, with Kimmeridgian limestone soils that are central to the region’s signature mineral profile. Domaine Fourrey typically works with careful vineyard management and hand-harvested fruit, followed by a restrained vinification that preserves purity and site expression, often with limited oak influence to keep the wine focused and transparent.

Food & Serving
This wine is a natural match for oysters, shellfish, grilled fish, sushi, and light poultry dishes with cream or herb-based sauces. Serve chilled, ideally around 10–12°C, and consider brief decanting only if you want to open up the wine in its youth; otherwise, it is best enjoyed straight from the bottle to preserve its precision and freshness.

Producer
Domaine Fourrey is a respected family estate in Chablis, known for producing wines that faithfully reflect the region’s terroir and classic style. The domaine has built a strong reputation for clean, mineral whites with excellent balance, and it is especially appreciated by Chablis lovers seeking authentic expression from both village and premier cru sites.
