About the wine
With lavish Premier Cru Chablis, you've got world-class French white wine right at your fingertips

What's more, Premier Cru wines like this are the cream of the crop, coming from only select vineyards in the region.
- By backing Benjamin, you’ve got a winemaker who knows how to make world-class Chablis better than just about anyone – and he makes it just for you! Grab a bottle of this Chablis Premier Cru and sip in style – you’ve earned it!
Best before
This crisp French white can be enjoyed young, though Benjamin suggests holding on to it if you can, as it'll evolve perfectly for up to 5-8 years.
Serving advice
Open it at least 10 minutes before serving and chill it to about 60°F.
Food match
Pairs wonderfully with Gougères and other crisp, cheesy nibbles, or with all kinds of raw shellfish, especially oysters. Other pairings include simply cooked shellfish, snails or prawns - especially with garlic butter.
