Based in Ligny-les-Chatel on the northern fringe of the Chablis appellation, Domaine Garnier & Fils has been family owned since 1789 with brothers Jerome and Xavier Garnier currently overseeing the winemaking and management. Jerome works the vineyards, while Xavier makes the wines, and together they are leading a group of newer producers finding their voice in the northern most part of Chablis. Organic farming is practiced in the vineyards, and fermentation occurs with natural yeasts before the wines are matured in a mix of very large barrels and stainless steel tanks.
Brilliant pale straw core with straw green tinged edges and a watery hue. Pear, green apple and lime aromas drift from the glass carrying with them a distinct stony mineral and oyster shell overlay. The invigorating palate sees delicious pear and lime fruits complimented by subtle green apple, wet stone, infusions of fresh herbs and mineral accents. Nicely shaped it shows excellent length finishing dry and quite moreish. Fantastic value.
Drink over the next 3-4 years.
