Domaine Mosnier’s Notes:
Crafted from old vines planted on Chablis’ renowned limestone soils, this limited-edition cuvée showcases the purity and finesse of the region. The 2022 vintage offers vibrant citrus and ripe orchard fruit, layered with subtle floral and mineral notes. Aged on fine lees, it delivers a beautifully rounded texture while retaining the crisp acidity that defines classic Chablis.
Background Information:
Sylvain Mosnier (pronounced ‘Monnier’), a motor mechanic, has produced Chablis since1978 when his wife inherited her Chablis based family’s vineyards. He made quality wines but it was not until his daughter Stephanie came home from both winemaking college and from a period gaining experience in other well-known wineries that the quality really took a jump into the realm of the serious, unwooded, lower-to-midrange priced best values in all of Chablis.
The winery has been cleverly and strategically designed with rectangular tanks stacked on top of each other, acting as walls as high 8-15 metres, rather than the space consuming circular tanks that we are used to in this country. Every square meter of the comparatively tiny central area is used to its greatest effect. Very practical, very clever. The tasting cellar, though, is very old and underground in the old village of Beines, 6kms (or 8 minutes) to the west of Chablis.
