Domaine Besson 1er Cru Montmains Chablis 2022 (750ml)

Pale straw with a subtle golden tint, Domaine Besson Chablis 1er Cru Montmains 2022 (100% Chardonnay) opens with a focused, mineral-driven bouquet—grapefruit pith, green apple, white flowers, and crushed stone, underscored by sea spray and faint smoke. Sourced from the cool, clay-limestone slopes of Montmains, the wine is fermented and aged in stainless steel, preserving linearity and the purity of Kimmeridgian terroir. The palate is taut and saline, offering citrus zest, orchard fruit, and a chalk-laced core with excellent mid-palate grip. Brisk acidity lends tension and drive, while the finish is long, flinty, and mouthwatering. A precise and elegant Premier Cru—refined, energetic, and deeply expressive of its site.
