Chablis Montée de Tonnerre, Patrick Piuze 2018

Tasting Notes

Piuze tells me that his 2018 Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre was the last wine in the cellar to complete its fermentation, and it's accordingly one of the most primary at this early stage, delivering a ripe bouquet of apricot, musky peaches and white flowers despite its comparatively modest potential alcohol. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, with good precision that suggests it may gain in tension with a bit more age.
