Description
The 2021 Chablis from Domaine Roland Lavantureux is a white wine from the prestigious Chablis appellation in the Burgundy region of France. Situated in the heart of the Yonne department, this family-run estate, led by Arnaud and David Lavantureux, is known for its dedication to environmentally respectful viticulture, producing wines that reflect the purity and elegance of Chardonnay. The vines are rooted in kimmeridgian soils rich in marine fossils, which gives this Chablis its distinctive typicity and pronounced minerality. This unique terroir, combined with the region’s cool climate, allows the Chardonnay grape to express itself with crystalline precision. The wine is crafted in a pure, focused style that embodies the freshness, finesse, and complexity characteristic of the Chablis appellation.
Blend
The 2021 Chablis is made entirely from Chardonnay, a noble grape variety that thrives in this region, where it acquires a distinctive mineral dimension.
Tasting Notes
Appearance: Pale yellow with bright, silvery highlights, typical of young Chablis.
Nose: The bouquet is vibrant and refined, featuring citrus notes like lemon and grapefruit, along with aromas of green apple, pear, and white flowers. Subtle hints of flintstone emerge, showcasing the wine’s mineral-rich terroir.
Palate: On the palate, this Chablis presents a beautiful tension and a precise structure. The flavors are clean and sharp, dominated by citrus notes with undertones of white fruits such as pear and a fine saline minerality. The texture is elegant, with well-integrated acidity providing freshness and liveliness. The finish is long and chiselled, marked by persistent minerality.
Aging Potential
While youthful, this wine offers vibrant freshness and brightness, but it can also be cellared for 5 to 7 years. Over time, it will evolve to reveal richer notes of dried fruits, honey, and hazelnut while maintaining its liveliness.
