"Praised by the critics, this is the Chablis 1er Cru Favorite to have in your cellar!"
"A new Favorite for Charly Nicolle, following last year's award for his "simple" Chablis Ante MCMLXXX 2022. This remarkable cuvée opens with toasty notes on the nose, reflecting the fact that 20% of the wine is aged in oak barrels. The palate is much more expressive: lively, full-bodied and fleshy, it combines citrus fruits, very present throughout, with the minerality of the terroir and a mellow woodiness. A sunny, powerful, taut wine. 2028-2035" (Le Guide Hachette 2026)

Domaine rated (guide 2022) 3*Stars (High-quality production that can serve as a benchmark in its sector)
About the domain :
We've been following this domaine for some time now, and are delighted with the seriousness and steady progress of Charly Nicolle. Exploiting the terroirs of Fleys, including the two premiers crus Les Fourneaux and the easternmost part of Mont de Milieu, he extracts a short range with great density on the palate, bringing out the minerality of each cru. A sure bet for the sector.

About the wine:
A hypnotic rustle of sea breeze and delicate green fruit finesse combine with the acidity of lemon zest and a strong mineral structure. Elegant and harmonious. Gold Medal 2025.

About the domain :
Charly Nicolle's great-grandparents already cultivated vines. Following in the footsteps of previous generations, the young winemaker set off on his own adventure. Settled in Fleys, to the east of Chablis, he created his own domaine in 2011, nurturing his 17 ha of Chardonnay, and has established himself as an established name in Chablis. He also runs the family domaine of La Mandelière.
