In northernmost Burgundy, the Chablis Premier Cru Forêts vineyards managed by Guillaume Michel, the sixth generation of the Michel family, grow on thin soil and push deep into the bedrock. The shallow bedrock and stony soil in the Forêts vineyards bring clean, precise and powerful minerality to the wines that start their life here. The terroir also delivers notes of undergrowth and fern mingled with spicier ripe fruit, as well as aromas of cocoa and pepper. Chablis 1er Cru Forets is vinified and matured in stainless steel tanks for at least 12 months, then gently filtered once before bottling. An ideal partner for poultry and fish dishes, it is also particularly delicious alongside creamy goat cheese. 12.5% ABV
