“A pale golden-yellow color. A youthful nose that captivates with aromas of apple and pear, with delicate floral notes in the background. Full-bodied on the palate with a warm attack that echoes the same aromatic profile. Its firmer finish contributes to its balance.” (Le Guide des Vins 2016 - Gilbert & Gaillard)

Rated estate (2022 guide): 3*Stars (High-quality production that serves as a benchmark in its sector)

About the estate:

We’ve been following this estate for some time now and are delighted by Charly Nicolle’s professionalism and steady progress. Working the terroirs of Fleys—including the two premier crus, Les Fourneaux and the easternmost part of Mont de Milieu—he produces a small selection of wines with great density on the palate, effectively highlighting the minerality unique to each cru. This is a sure bet for the region.

Guide Hachette des vins

Wine noted (guide 2018) 1*Star (Very successful wine)

Rated Estate (2024 Guide) Award-Winning Wines (This producer's wines regularly receive awards from the guide)

About the wine:

An expressive wine (citrus, almond, brioche), full-bodied, smooth, and round on the palate, refined and prolonged by a delicate acidity.

About the estate:

Charly Nicolle's great-grandparents were already growing grapes. Following in the footsteps of previous generations, the young winemaker embarked on this adventure. Based in Fleys, east of Chablis, he established his own estate in 2011, carefully tending his 17 hectares of Chardonnay, and has established himself as a reliable name in the Chablis region. He also manages the family estate, La Mandelière, alongside his own venture.
