The 2022 Domaine Gérard Duplessis Chablis is a brilliant, exceptionally pure, and textbook village-level French white wine that serves as the perfect introduction to the estate's crystalline style. Sourced from organically farmed estate vineyards rooted in classic, fossil-rich Kimmeridgian limestone soils, it pours a clear, pale straw-yellow colour with light green glints in the glass. The nose opens with a vibrant, high-toned bouquet of crisp green apple, lemon zest, and white peach, elegantly intertwined with underlying notes of crushed oyster shells and marine salinity. On the palate, this medium-bodied white is taut, crisp, and fruit-forward, offering a precise core of tangy citrus and stone fruit. Fermented and aged entirely in stainless steel on fine lees to safeguard its terroir transparency, it is driven by a racy, electric acidity that carries into a long, bone-dry finish defined by a clean, chalky mineral snap.
Food Pairing: Pairs beautifully with fresh raw oysters on the half shell, classic mussels marinière, pan-seared trout with lemon-herb butter, grilled shrimp skewers, sashimi, light garden salads, and fresh French goat cheeses.
