2022 Lamblin et Fils Chablis Vaillons Premier Cru

Most wine collectors and sommeliers will tell you that the wines of Chablis are among some of the most highly sought-after wines in all of Burgundy. Chablis is known for producing a high-quality, mineral-driven, unoaked Chardonnay with exceptional acidity. The wines are frequently referenced as a pure unaltered expression of Chardonnay.

The Chablis region of Burgundy has one of the rares and most incredible soils in the world, it's a  rich soil of clay and limestone that nurtures Chardonnay. Also known as the Kimmeridgian soil, is born of 180 million years of oyster shells fossilizing into soil. That’s why Chablis is so distinctive from Chardonnay produced in other regions.
