Famille Michaut's Chablis 1er Cru Beauroy is a classic white wine from Burgundy, France. Sourced from 3.6 ha of 60-year-old Chardonnay vines planted at 6,000 vines/ha on Kimmeridgian limestone-clay soils. The vineyards are located on the left bank in the commune of Beine, on the south-facing slopes of Côte de Savant and Troemes. Certified HVE Level 3, with sustainable viticulture and mechanical weeding.
Region: Burgundy
Appellation: Chablis 1er Cru
Varietal: 100% Chardonnay
Winemaking: Traditional vinification; fermentation at 18 °C; ageing 12 months, 65% stainless steel and 35% oak barrels.
Tasting Notes: “A focused nose of intense lemon zest, sliced apples, warm stones, chalk and pastry. Medium- to full-bodied with very good intensity and a long, compact finish.” – Zekun Shuai from James Suckling
Pairings: Ideal alongside butter-poached lobster, roasted chicken with thyme and root vegetables, creamy mushroom risotto, or veal scallopini finished with a delicate lemon and white wine sauce.
