Domaine Jean Collet & Fils Chablis 1er Cru Montmains

This Premier Cru is a hallmark of the Collet family's long history in Chablis, sourced from five small parcels on the stony left bank of the Serein river. The vineyards sit on classic Kimmeridgian limestone marl, which is famously rich in marine fossils. Under the direction of Romain Collet, the wine is fermented with indigenous yeasts and aged for 10–12 months in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats to preserve its "kimmeridgian energy." It is characterized by a bright, steely profile with aromas of white flowers, green apple, and citrus, leading to a generous mid-palate with a distinct oyster shell salinity and a long, mouth-watering finish.
