“This Chablis winemaker seamlessly transitions from Chardonnay to Pinot Noir. The label alone is stunning. But that’s not all. This cuvée, aged in barrels for 16 months, stands out for its highly aromatic nose, featuring red fruit notes, followed by a full-bodied palate that is both lingering and fresh yet warm, with simply perfect balance. ” (Le Guide Hachette 2024)

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2021 guide): 3 stars (High-quality production, setting the standard in its sector)
About the estate:
This friendly couple of winemakers has taken a significant step forward by switching to organic viticulture, which began earning certification with the 2014 vintage. The grapes’ beautiful ripeness is well balanced by a lively acidity derived from the limestone soils, and barrel aging increasingly highlights the nuances of the terroir. Produced from a very distinctive subsoil known as Hauterivien, the Petit-Chablis is consistently remarkable for its richness; the red wine from the Yonne is among the very best in the region; and the Premier Crus from the Poinchy sector (Léchet, Beauroy, Fourchaume) are now reliable choices for wine lovers. Like others in the area, the estate unfortunately suffered from the weather conditions of the 2016 vintage. Sadly, 2017 began with a terrible frost… Hence the “grain-de-survie” cuvée, sold through the wine trade, to offer a small amount of wine to regular customers. The Petit Chablis and generic Chablis wines lack their usual precision; the Premier Crus will hold up better. Can’t wait for the 2018s!

About the wine:
In his role as a wine merchant, this Chablis winemaker effortlessly switches between Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The label alone is stunning. But that’s not all. This cuvée, aged in barrels for 16 months, stands out for its highly aromatic nose, featuring red fruit notes, followed by a full-bodied palate that is both lingering and fresh yet warm, with a balance that is simply perfect.
About the estate:
Based in Chablis, Isabelle and Denis Pommier run an 18-hectare vineyard established in 1990 that consistently produces high-quality wines. After managing their vineyard using sustainable farming practices for 15 years, they obtained organic certification in 2014.

Rated estate (2022 guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking, and as such, all the estates listed here—even those without a star—represent, in our view, the pinnacle of French winemaking.)
About the estate:
Isabelle and Denis Pommier settled in the village of Poinchy in 1990, starting with 2 hectares of vineyards (23 today). Some of the premier cru wines undergo partial fermentation in oak, and all winemaking is carried out using native yeasts. The entire production is of impeccable quality, particularly the entry-level wines. Certified organic since 2014, this estate has produced superb wines that are always well-ripened, but freshness is not always present: with regret, we are removing the star, hoping for a return to better balance soon.

Review by Mr. NICOLAS B. Posted on 11/27/2024
Mixed results: I bought two bottles and had two different opinions. One bottle was unbalanced and had a strong sulfuric note. On the other hand, the other bottle had lovely notes of red fruit and fine tannins.
