"The 2023 Chablis Fourchaume 1er Cru is clean and precise with more mineralité and tension than many of its peers. It gains complexity with aeration. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity. Notes of lemon zest, ginger and Granny Smith apples combine well together. The finish demonstrates commendable cohesion and certainly good length. The 2023 is very fine." -Decanter

A racy, elegant wine with beautiful minerality, offering delicate notes of white blossom and orchard fruit. Les Fourchaumes is one of the most spectacular vineyards of
