Unbelievably fresh and taught – crisp green apple, white pepper and spice. You feel this airy weight of Pinot Noir alongside a chalky Chardonnay hit. This is such a complex, vinous beast that's screaming out for ageing. It is one of those wines that you really need to dig deep into to discover what it will reveal, but it's absolutely worth it.
House Profile
One of the absolute gems of the village of Chouilly. Established in 1991 and run by the three brothers; Remi, Olivier and Jerome Legras they work with 18 hectares in Chouilly alone and have holdings in Vitry, Les Riceys and Ay. Their range is all fantastic but is all fantastic with their wines ageing gracefully into their 3rd decade but they are also pushing the boundaries with some fantastic single vineyard wines and a brilliant Chardonnay/Pinot Noir blend from Chouilly and Ay, with wines made from a blend of over 10 vintages.
