3-star rating (High-quality production, serving as a benchmark in its sector)

About the estate:

An old Chablis family, the Michels cultivate the best areas, both premier crus and grands crus. The estate is also one of the very few to offer the Grand Cru Grenouilles, whose main producer remains La Chablisienne. Since 1969, the wines have been vinified in stainless steel vats, so they often start out discreetly in the bottle, but their minerality reveals itself beautifully after a few years of aging.

About wine:

The 2020 Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos is full-bodied, textured, and muscular, evoking citrus zest, crisp green apple, white flowers, freshly baked bread, marzipan, and ripe peaches. Rich and concentrated, it is the fullest and most generous wine in the range, while remaining beautifully balanced.
