Tasting Notes:
This Villages Chablis presents an elegant floral bouquet that sets the stage for the vibrant energy and precision it delivers on the palate.
Harmoniously balanced, it reveals generous green apple fruit and a lively, zesty freshness that speaks of its origin. True to the signature style of Barat, Angèle chooses stainless steel over oak, ensuring that freshness, vibrancy, and a clear expression of the Chablis terroir shine through unmasked.
In the vineyard, Ludovic employs organic, herbicide-free fertilisers and sustainable viticultural practices, reflecting a thoughtful, responsible approach. The grapes are hand-harvested and gently pressed, with fermentation at cooler temperatures to safeguard aromatic purity. The wine is then matured for 8 months in stainless steel, where malolactic fermentation on the lees brings a subtle creaminess and a delicate hint of meringue.
Food & Wine Pairing:
- Oysters on the half shell — The wine’s zesty freshness and minerality make it a natural partner
- Seared scallops with a lemon beurre blanc — The subtle creaminess of the Chablis complements the rich sauce
- Goat’s cheese tart or crottin de Chavignol — The vibrant acidity cuts through the richness beautifully
- Grilled Dover sole with herbs — A classic pairing that lets the wine and fish shine equally
