Domaine noté Recommended (Wine producer recommended by Robert Parker - The Wine Advocate)
About the wine:
Offering aromas of crisp green apple, pear, spring flower and wet stones, the 2018 Chablis 1er Cru Mont de Milieu is medium-bodied, delicately textured and incisive, with lively acids and a chalky finish. It reveals itself well.
About the domain :
RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Wine rated (2021 guide) 94/100
Domaine rated (guide 2022) 2*Stars (These great estates, often endowed with fabulous terroirs, are must-haves which, thanks to their consistency and the excellence of their production, must be included in the cellars of discerning wine lovers).
About the wine:
Chlorophyll and floral dominance in Mont de Milieu, whose power is perfectly restrained, with small, incisive bitters on the finish.
About the domain :
This family-run estate, established in Chablis since 1815, changed hands in 2014, becoming part of the Faiveley family, which thus enlarged its portfolio, already comprising 20 hectares of the finest Chablis terroirs, with four Grand Crus: Les Clos, Les Preuses, Vaudésir and Les Blanchots; four Premier Crus: Montée de Tonnerre, Mont-de-Milieu, Fourchaume and Vaillons, as well as Chablis and Petit Chablis. Olivier Bailly was appointed régisseur in 2014, and quickly refined the management of the elevages. From 2016 onwards, the return of high quality is evident, and this address is now one of the safest in Chablis.

About the wine:
The wine's subtle nose reveals notes of lemon, hay and chalk. These continue on the palate, where they intertwine in beautiful harmony. The emphasis is on generosity, marked by the concise, chalky mid-palate and lemony brightness, despite the warm conditions of this vintage. This is a stony, elegant wine with great depth.
