This is Chablis with nothing in the way: Chardonnay from Kimmeridgian limestone, by a family that has farmed the same village for seven generations. Cyril joined his father Alain in 2000 and now runs the domaine in Fleys, a village of 160 people about 4 km from Chablis itself. The house's village Chablis blends more than twenty parcels on the right bank of the Serein, from vines aged 15 to 55. It gives you the voice of the whole appellation rather than one site, and the Premiers Crus build from there. The farming is careful without being preachy: grass between the rows instead of weed killers, plus pruning and green harvesting to keep yields down. One bit of trivia: the soil around Fleys is so full of fossilized snails that Alain keeps a few in the tasting room. Pour this when someone asks what Chablis is supposed to taste like.

More about

Glance at Gautheron’s label and you’d guess this is a classic producer. And, well, sometimes you can judge a book by its cover. Gautheron is, as Burghound says, an “old school domaine” with a “decidedly traditional style.” But traditional doesn’t mean staid: Gautheron is an exciting producer to get to know. Partly, that’s down to Cyril, (son of Alain) bringing new energy and focus to the old-school approach: yields are low, farming is more focussed than ever, and the wines have both intense expressiveness and clear identity.

But more than that, it’s the thrill of honest Chablis itself: Racy Kimmeridgian minerality, cooling northern acidity, and beautiful fruit in terroir-specific variations.

Tasting Profile

Expect textbook village Chablis: green apple, lemon and white flowers over a chalky, oyster-shell minerality from the Kimmeridgian limestone. The body is light to medium and the acidity bright, with fruit and mineral kept in balance, finishing dry, clean and saline. Think of it as Chardonnay at its leanest and most mineral, a natural partner for oysters.
