Enjoy it now, or cellar for a few years. No need to decant before serving. La Pierrelee is a brilliant gold in the glass, with shining silver hues. It has a mineral-rich bouquet, developing detailed notes of lime leaf, jasmine, and flint as it aerates. It is made of 100% Chardonnay, harvested from several communes and locations within Chablis, making it a multi-faceted expression of this special region. La Chablisienne was founded by Abbé Balitrand in 1923. It began as a cooperative between grape growers but has slowly evolved into something different. Since the 1950s, grape growers have delivered unfermented grape juice to the winery, so that the winemakers have complete creative control over the wine. La Chablisienne has been an essential part of Chablis over the last century, helping to shape the region’s distinctive style. La Pierrelee offers a refreshing, round palate, with clean minerality and a hint of sweetness. Look for notes of ripe pear, lime zest and hints of cream, gained from 12 months of ageing with yeast in tanks and barrels. Good acidity brings a pleasant tension to the palate, which leads to a long, satisfying finish. A perfect introduction to Chablis. Consider pairing La Pierrelee with goat's cheese, creamy sauces, or drinking it as an aperitif.
