$255
One of two of the de Moors’ vineyards in premier cru climats, Mont de Milieu is on the right bank of the River Serein. The soil is Kimmeridgian marl and limestone with Portlandian limestone scree. With a southerly exposure it is one of the warmest Chablis climats. This vintage was vinified 2/3 in a clay amphora and 1/3 in barrels for 12 months. It was then blended and aged for a further year in a 2500 litre barrel. It was bottled in November 2024. This vintage was lightly filtered. The wine has a richness and generous expansiveness about it. Unsurprisingly it will be even more interesting if it can enjoy more aging. Winery's notes.
