From the south-east-facing slopes of Montmains, it brings together ripe yellow-fruit and floral notes with the region’s distinctive Kimmeridgian marl influence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eExpect a concentrated, rounded palate balanced by lively freshness and a clear mineral thread. Yellow fruit and apricot lead, joined by floral nuances, hazelnut and almond; with development, the bouquet gains more complex brioche notes. The supplied information does not specify an ageing window.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Chardonnay comes from deep soils of Kimmeridgian marl and clay on Montmains’ south-east-facing slopes. The vineyards are managed using integrated pest-control practices, with regular soil cultivation. After pneumatic pressing, the must is naturally clarified; fermentation begins with indigenous yeasts in a combination of stainless steel tanks and barrels. Malolactic fermentation follows, then around ten months of ageing before blending and gentle filtration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eServe at around 10–12°C with refined fish dishes, shellfish or poultry and other light meats. Decanting is generally unnecessary; if the wine seems particularly closed, give it a brief airing before serving.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDomaine Jean-Paul \u0026amp; Benoît Droin is a family-run estate in Chablis, a region where the Droin family has a long history of winegrowing.
