| Description |
|
| This vineyard is known for its elegance and generous aromas. The Blanchots is easy to taste early with delicate floral aromas. A rare unoaked Chablis Grand Cru, the 100% tank vinification preserves its delicate fruit/floral flavours but takes nothing away from its long ageing qualities. |
 |
| Cépage |
|
| 100 % Chardonnay (known locally as “Beaunois”). |
|
| Situation géographique |
|
| Right side of the Serein River. One of the seven Grands Crus of Chablis.
The Blanchots vineyard is more South/East facing giving it the morning sun. Two separate vineyards, one coming from the top of the hill and one from the bottom.

|
| Terroir |
|
| Lime-clay soils are dominant here, but the geological originality of appellation Chablis resides in its sub-strata, often quite near the surface, of kimmeridgean limestone, formed by billions of tiny fossilised oyster shells called ostrea virgule. |
