Description
What kind of wine it is
The Chablis Premier Cru Mont de Milieu from Domaine Denis Race is a still white wine that expresses the authentic character of Burgundy. Made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes, it appears in the glass with a bright straw yellow colour. The bouquet combines mineral aromas with pleasant floral and fruity notes. On the palate, the Chardonnay reveals itself as full-bodied and juicy, offering a balanced sip and a savouriness that lingers long on the finish. Served at the ideal temperature of 10–12 °C, this structured wine pairs perfectly with fish dishes, white meats such as veal and poultry, and cheese selections.
Where it comes from
This Chablis Premier Cru originates in France, in the renowned Chablis area, specifically in the Mont de Milieu climat, known for its excellently exposed vineyards. The winery cultivates the vines following the principles of organic and sustainable certification. The roots sink into a marly and calcareous soil, rich in fossil deposits. This unique soil composition gives the wine a distinct mineral imprint and a well-defined territorial identity. Thanks to the characteristics of the terroir, the wine enjoys remarkable longevity, able to evolve favourably in the cellar for several years.
How it is produced
The process begins with a mechanical harvest of the grapes, followed by careful vinification. Fermentation in stainless steel at a controlled temperature is an essential choice to preserve the freshness and aromatic precision of the grape variety. This phase is followed by a carefully timed maturation period, designed to maintain a clean profile and naturally enhance the characteristics of the Chardonnay. This method achieves perfect structural balance. The result is an intense wine that embodies the unmistakable style of this prestigious area of Burgundy.
