Chablis 1er Cru "Montee de Tonnerre" 2018 Dominique Gruhier
This Chablis 1er Cru "Montee de Tonnerre" 2018 is a fine natural wine produced by Domaine Dominique Gruhier. Obtained from Chardonnay grapes coming from this small vineyard north of the denomination, characterized by a good exposure of the vineyards, it allows to produce a wine of great quality. Bright straw yellow in color, tending to golden due to its young age, it will take on warm notes of bright golden over the years. The nose expresses a complex bouquet where the first aromas to be recognized are the spices, in particular cloves and vanilla, followed by the typical mineral hints accompanied by fruit such as green apple and pear. These aromas will evolve towards notes of dried fruit, butter and honey. In the mouth it is rich in aromas perceived on the nose, body and mineral, with a beautiful balance that will unfold after a few years of rest in the bottle.
