🌟 A Premier Cru Chablis of drive and depth—where steely minerality meets luxurious texture.

👁 In the Glass:
Pale gold with a silvery shimmer—crystalline and pure.

👃 On the Nose:
Bracing aromas of crushed oyster shell, lemon peel, green apple, and a touch of white flowers. As it opens, hints of wet stone and subtle almond emerge, evoking the cool soils of Fourchaume.

👅 On the Palate:
Taut and energetic, yet surprisingly layered. Classic Chablis salinity and linear citrus zest are wrapped in a rounded, lees-influenced mid-palate. A hint of cream and chalk adds elegance, finishing long with a fine mineral echo.

🍽 Food Pairing:
Perfect with fresh seafood—think oysters, scallops, or Dover sole in beurre blanc. Also pairs beautifully with goat cheese, poultry in cream sauce, or asparagus risotto.

⏳ Enjoyment Window:
Drinking beautifully now with a short decant, but will develop added nuance over 5–7 years.

✨ Why You’ll Love It:
Domaine Séguinot-Bordet’s Chablis Fourchaume is the perfect union of tension and charm. It captures the essence of Premier Cru Chablis: racy, mineral, yet with a richness that makes it as contemplative as it is delicious. A standout expression from one of Chablis' most revered sites.
