Médaille d'Or

Gilbert & Gaillard

“A pale golden yellow color. The nose combines white-fleshed fruits with floral notes. The palate is full-bodied and fruit-forward, evolving into a fresher profile that lends it a pleasant liveliness. A delicious Chablis with a lovely fruity finish.” (Gilbert & Gaillard 2016) A perfect Chablis to pair with a seafood platter!

Rated estate (2022 guide): 3 stars (High-quality production, setting the standard 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 crafts a small selection of wines with great density on the palate, effectively highlighting the distinct minerality of each cru. This is a sure bet for the region.

Rated estate (2024 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer’s wines are regularly recognized by the guide)

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, tending to 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.
