2023 Domaine Seguinot-Bordet 'Fourchaume' 1er Cru Chablis

Winemaker Notes: Long established in the region Jean-François Bordet can trace his family's roots in Maligny right back to 1590. This well-regarded estate of which he's the current custodian lies on the right bank of the river Serein, where the rich Kimmeridgian soils give the wines the minerality so typical of great Chablis. His unusual horizontal fermentation tanks give the wines more lees contact during maturation, which add a layer of extra complexity to his beautiful, pure, wines.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


Burghound - "A slightly riper nose features notes of white peach, acacia, zest and just enough Chablis typicity to be convincing. I like the excellent verve suffusing the middleweight flavors that possess good minerality that adds a sense of lift to the nicely dry, lengthy and equally well-balanced finale. Drink: 2027+." (10.23)
