Description
Chablis Bienommée 2018 LC Poitout
Variety: Chardonnay 100%
Organic Terra Vitis
Louis and Catherine own 10 hectares of Chablis classified vineyards. They are scattered in the municipalities of Maligny, with the vineyards (Châtillons Pierrette, Culmi), Villy (Vaudat, Vau Martin) Lignorelles (Conroy, Vau Prin) and Fleys (Plain Serre, Vice Plaine da Serre, Les Ardiats).
Each vineyard has different terroir characteristics, of different age of the different strains, and for this reason they are harvested and vinified separately.
For the Chablis Bienommée only the “Vaudat” vineyard located in Villy is used.
Its terroir has been famous for many decades for the quality it manages to achieve.
The vines were planted in 1987 and 1988. They have an eastern exposure on land with a large number of small pebbles.
After the manual harvest, it is gently pressed and the juice benefits from static settling until optimal turbidity is reached. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel containers, at controlled temperature. In the same containers it carries out the malo-lactic transformation
All the chablis of the Domaine Poitout are aged exclusively in stainless steel, to better enhance the minerality and characteristics of the terroir.

Straw yellow.
Straw yellow.
The nose has intense, complex and fascinating aromas, with yellow plum, lemongrass, and bergamot. Even the broom and mimosa flowers twirl in the glass, and together with the splendid notes of the sea, they enrich the overall profile.
On the palate it has everything it needs, and in the right places. Not only rich in minerality, and functional freshness, but also soft and creamy. The sip is very long and deep, it extends over time with grace and elegance. It has aromas of citrus fruits and locust honey.
Perfect product to understand the passion and great skills of Louis and Catherine.
Small, but big company. Still unknown to the general public, it won’t take long to get to stardom.
It has great chances to improve over time.
Excellent Chablis to taste with oysters, crabs, prawns and other seafood. Also excellent with regional cheeses such as Chaource and Soumaintrain.
