Domaine Hervé Azo Petit Chablis 2023 750 ML

This wine has a textbook nose of citrus and crushed stone followed by a wine of surprising intensity and richness.Petit Chablis is a much maligned appellation because much of it is located outside of the traditional grape growing region of Chablis. In fact, many of these vineyards are located in areas where, historically, grains were the primary crop. However, within the area around Chablis, there are many fine vineyards bearing this appellation. They are located on the crowns of the hills whose slopes bear the Chablis and Chablis Premier Cru status. The soil of these vineyards has a lower clay content which generally makes for wines which are not as round and fat. Azo?s Petit Chablis is a standard bearer and will stand tall along side many wines from the region with a more prestigious pedigree.
