Chablis AOC Le Classique 2016 Gilbert Picq

Gilbert Picq's Chablis comes from vineyards located in the prestigious wine region of Chablis, in Burgundy.

It is entirely produced with Chardonnay grapes, harvested by hand between the end of September and the beginning of October. The fermentation takes place for a long time in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures ranging from 18-20 ° C up to 24-25 ° C developed in the final stages of the process. After malolactic fermentation, the wine ages in steel on the fine lees for 8-12 months before being bottled.

It is characterized by a golden yellow color with green reflections. The nose opens with fresh floral aromas of hawthorn and lemongrass, enriched with pleasant fruity notes of peach. On the palate it is mineral and decisive, with a dense and fragrant finish characterized by notes of almond and hazelnut.

Perfect to accompany shellfish and seafood, it is ideal in combination with white meats and fresh cheeses.
