The Chablis Domaine Colette Gros is a subtle and mineral Chardonnay, with a strong territorial correspondence. The Chablis area, in the far northwest of Burgundy, represents one of the most "northern" wine regions in Europe. Alongside the climatic factor, which determines the sharp freshness of the wines produced here, there is the pedological element, the so-called "kimmeridge", an ancient type of soil made up of limestone and marine fossils. This Burgundy production reality operates with an environmental sustainability perspective that adheres to the principles of organic farming. The use of plant protection treatments occurs only when the risk of damage to production or plants is genuinely significant.
Domaine Colette Gros Chablis is made from pure Chardonnay sourced from kimmeridge soils, rich in limestone and marine fossils. Following the harvest, alcoholic fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled steel tanks, in order to preserve the freshness and aromas of the wine. Maturation always occurs in steel tanks for a period of 6 months spent on the fine lees.
