100% Chardonnay expressing the the distinctive soils of the region (Kimmeridgian Limestone), the vineyard is located in the northern of Chablis appellation. The finesse of this wine is the result of a traditional winemaking with fermentation with indigenous yeast in stainless-steel vats to keep the minerality at the highest possible level while preserving the purity and integrity of the fruit. Incredibly refreshing, sliced green apples, persistent balanced-tart, a sublet touch of kumquats, and crazy clean finish. — 2 years ago

Holy Schmoly this is delish! Deep, vibrant, garnet color. Medium body and hearty. Taste of cherry, raspberry, and white pepper. So easy to drink it disappeared. Perfect with dinner. No burn, no bite, like liquid red crushed velvet. — 9 years ago

Chenevièrs – “Grandes Vignes” Chablis 2023
Chablis, Burgundy, France 🇫🇷

Overview
100% Chardonnay grown on a plateau of Kimmeridgian limestone soils in “La Chapelle Vaupeltigne,” a northern sector of the Chablis appellation. This terroir is prized for its fossil-rich soils, which impart the minerality and precision that make Chablis so distinctive.

Aromas & Flavors
Fresh-cut lemon, crisp green apple, and white peach layered with chalky minerality and subtle floral notes. Hints of oyster shell and wet stone nod to the limestone soils beneath the vines.

Mouthfeel
Light to medium-bodied with razor-sharp acidity, dry and mineral-driven. A very clean and linear style, finishing with elegance and a lingering citrus zest freshness.

Winemaking Notes
Fermented in stainless steel to preserve fruit purity and terroir transparency. Unoaked, ensuring the vibrancy of Chardonnay shines in its most authentic Burgundian expression.

Food Pairing
Ideal with oysters, mussels, or any shellfish. Also pairs beautifully with goat cheese, light poultry, or simply as a crisp aperitif.

Verdict
A textbook Chablis that captures the essence of its limestone terroir. Elegant, refreshing, and precise—an affordable way to enjoy one of Burgundy’s most distinctive white wines. Cheers! — 9 months ago

9.1

Crystal; aromatic, with a hint of iron and graphene, lightly oily (of the high quality luques olive variety) - a touch of strawberries and butter; lovely acidity, slightly salty, could have had a little more fructose? Still, it's excellent! — 11 years ago

Frédéric Gueguen (Domaine des Chenevières) – Saint-Bris “Chenevières” Sauvignon Blanc 2022
Saint-Bris AOC, Chablis, Burgundy, France 🇫🇷

Overview
A rare Burgundian exception, Saint-Bris is the only appellation in Burgundy legally permitted to produce 100% Sauvignon Blanc rather than Chardonnay. This bottling from Domaine des Chenevières delivers a distinctly mineral, cool-climate expression, shaped by Kimmeridgian limestone soils similar to those of nearby Chablis. A compelling meeting point between Loire-like freshness and Burgundian restraint.

Aromas & Flavors
Crisp citrus peel, green apple, lime zest, and subtle white peach, layered with flinty minerality and delicate herbal notes. Aromatics are precise and understated, avoiding the overt tropical character often associated with New World Sauvignon Blanc.

Mouthfeel
Taut, linear, and finely textured. Bright acidity drives the palate with excellent balance, offering tension and clarity rather than weight. Clean, saline finish with lingering mineral freshness.

Food Pairings
Fresh oysters, goat cheese, ceviche, grilled fish, shellfish, or light vegetable dishes with citrus accents.

Verdict
A beautifully crafted and distinctive Sauvignon Blanc that stands apart from both Loire Valley archetypes and New World expressions. Elegant, mineral-driven, and quietly complex, a wine that rewards those seeking nuance over exuberance.

Did You Know?
Saint-Bris AOC is Burgundy’s only appellation authorized to grow Sauvignon Blanc, making wines like this a true anomaly within the region’s Chardonnay-dominated landscape.

🍷 Personal Pick Highlight
One of my favorite non-traditional Sauvignon Blancs in the world. A rare Burgundy exception that consistently delivers finesse, minerality, and precision, a benchmark for how restrained and terroir-driven Sauvignon Blanc can be. — a year ago
