The unoaked Gerard Tremblay Petit Chablis is from 10- to 30-year-old vines, with alcoholic and malolactic fermentation carried out in stainless steel. Pale straw yellow in colour with a nose of fresh mint and citrus fruits with a hint of liquorice. On the palate, fresh and supple with notes of grapefruit peel leading to a crisp yet persistent finish. A delightfully crisp Chardonnay making for a perfect aperitif!
DOMAINE GÉRARD TREMBLAY, Chablis
Gérard and Hélène Tremblay own 34 hectares in Chablis, including 10 in Premier and Grand Crus. They are the 5th generation of Tremblay to run the estate but they have built most of it themselves, including their brand new winery, which works entirely by gravity, thus avoiding unnecessary manipulations of the fruit or pumping of juices. The wines are uncompromisingly Chablis, steely, clean and mineral.
