Le Domaine D Henri Chablis 1er Cru Fourchaume Heritage 2017

The Cuvée Héritage is dedicated to the memory of Henri. Hand harvested and hand selected, this is a “première trie”, or selection, of the finest grapes from the oldest parcel of vines, planted in 1937, now over 80 years old. Vinified and aged in stainless steel tanks (63%) and 228-litre oak barrels (37%), this is an elegant, precise yet racy wine, that expresses the tension and refreshing minerality associated with the great Chablis terroirs. For Henri, this was the purest expression of the Chardonnay grape. The production is limited to only a few thousand bottles per year and the volume will vary each year, depending on the quality of the vintage.
