Chablis Vieilles Vignes 'Venerables' La Chablisienne 2012

The Chablis Vieilles Vignes Venerables takes its name by the usually used definition in France to indicate a wine produced from significantly old vineyards. If they are worked with due skill and care, they can create great oenological results. Three hundred manufacturers, united in the form of a cooperative, under the name of La Chablisienne, create wines with high quality standards in the Chablis region, France. Chablis is the great name that distinguishes the Burgundian chardonnay, the best in the world for softness and full aromatic flavor. The strong character, clear and mineral of these excellent chardonnay are guaranteed by the richness of geology of the soil. Here, it is composed by calcareous sediments of marine origin (famous for the presence of fossils of a small oyster) and subsequent layers of clay; together they are ideal components of this exceptional and ancient terroir. In the case of Chablis Vieilles Vignes Venerables, the specifications of the terroir are added to the extraordinary age of the vines that here combine to create an excellent product, capable of seducing us with pleasantly aromatic nuances, balanced by sharpness of elegant mineral notes.
