About the wine
The UN protects this vineyard as one of the most historic and unique winemaking sites in the world.
Benjamin Laroche, your Angel-funded winemaker, says:
- "For centuries, my family have made famous Chablis. Now, thanks to you, I can keep this tradition alive and make wine from one of the most prestigious and historic parts of Burgundy under my own name."
- "The name 'Forets' on the label means this wine comes from a very special place–one of only a handful of the most famous Chardonnay vineyards in France. It's nestled in a subclimate of Montmains where it has an incredible exposure to sun year round in an otherwise much cooler temperate climate."
- "I love to enjoy it alongside some simple grilled fish, or if you want something a little more special, splash out on fresh oysters and shellfish."

Loved it. Crystal clear, crisp, bright, mineral flavors with a little more heft than other crisp whites. Next time this is available, I'm going to stock up. Now I also want to try all of Benjamin's other Chablis.

Loving your Chablis, where is your vineyard and do you have tours? And some more wine to buy would be nice, out of stock..:)
