Sylvain Mosnier

Chablis 1er Cru Beauroy

Wine Type: White Wine

Country: France

Region: Chablis

Grapes: 100% Chardonnay

Tasting Notes: With its hallmark green-white-gold color and citrus and green apple-soaked mineral bouquet,  this is a classic Premier Cru Chablis.  The palate offers an intriguing blend of freshness and depth, with grapes, green apples and lemons overlying saline-tinted minerals before a touch of warming honey comes through.

About the Winery: Sylvain Mosnier is a highly respected, family-owned producer in Chablis. Since 1893 they have crafted a range of exceptional wines that are true to their region’s traditions and their vineyards’ character. They own 15 hectares of vines in several well-placed sites, including the Premier Cru Beauroy. Their vines are old by Chablis’ standards being on average over 65 years old and give classic, steely wines of great precision.

James Suckling: “A solid, precise, vivid and succulent chardonnay with aromas of sliced apples, white peaches, warm spices and some wild herbs. Medium-bodied with fresh acidity. A juicy center palate with plenty of drive and focus. Flavorful and seductive. Drink or hold.”
