2010 Jean-Claude Bessin Chablis Montmains 1 er Cru 0,75 Liter

The Jean-Claude Bessin Chablis Montmains 1er Cru 2010 is a classic expression of Chardonnay from the renowned Montmains vineyard in Chablis. Grown on Kimmeridgian limestone soils, this 2010 vintage displays a pale gold hue and a refined nose of green apple, lemon zest, and oyster shell, with hints of wet stone and subtle oak. On the palate, it is crisp and mineral-driven, with vibrant acidity and a lean, focused fruit profile, culminating in a long, saline finish. Fermented and aged in a combination of stainless steel and oak, this wine showcases Bessin’s balance of tradition and precision. It pairs beautifully with oysters, seafood, or goat cheese, offering elegance and versatility. With over a decade of aging, it is drinking beautifully now but can evolve further over the next 5-8 years, making it a favorite for Chablis enthusiasts.
