Vintage Report

The 2022 vintage for white Burgundy has been awarded an excellent score of 96 points. The wines from this year are early maturing and already very approachable.

Another resounding success, in a resolutely "Chablis" style. Among Burgundy wines, this cuvée from Les Vénérables is a tribute to minerality and justice. Spicy, refined, and opulently balanced, the aromas are numerous: white flowers, white fruit, menthol, and mineral notes. This cuvée, made from plots of vines over 35 years old, was aged for 14 months on fine lees in barrels and small casks. On the palate, we find intensity, a beautiful fullness, and an elegantly lively finish. Very approachable now, it will gain complexity in the coming years.

France's leading wine company

In 1996, La Chablisienne was named the best cellar cooperative in France by the authoritative magazine "La Revue des Vins de France." They alone account for approximately 30 percent of the total production and combine this with a range of unparalleled quality. They are currently one of the most successful and leading companies in France, but the company was born out of sheer poverty. In 1923, 180 winegrowers decided to join forces due to the poor economic conditions of the time. They later merged with another cooperative and today consists of 300 members and together owns 1,130 hectares of vineyards. The vineyards are located in the heart of Chablis, where they plant only Chardonnay vines. Chablis's vineyards are among the oldest in France. The minerality in these wines is a result of the soil structure and the altitude of the grapes on the hills. The soil consists of limestone, clay, and fossil elements.

The complex Chablis Les Venerables

A classic. This Chablis is pale yellow in color with a beautiful crystalline sheen. The aroma reveals white flowers (orchids) and a subtle spice from the wood. The wine is complex and has an appealing minerality. The palate also reveals slightly riper fruit. It has an exceptionally long finish.
