The plot is located in the village of Préhy to the southwest of the Chablis
vineyard on the Kimmeridgian, the upper layer of the Jurassic composed
of clay and limestone, with a south-eastern exposure.

After a long and delicate pressing, a cold settling of about twenty hours,
the fermentation took place at around 16° to 18° Celsius using indigenous
yeasts.
We carry out the malolactic fermentation on fine lees from November to
mid-April then a light fining and filtration on earth in order to obtain a
clear and stable wine before bottling by us at the estate.

The aging is done exclusively in stainless steel vats to preserve the
freshness and fruitiness of the wine. These vats are thermoregulated
which allows fermentations to be carried out at low temperatures in order
to best develop the aromas of the wine.

With a bright, light yellow color, a fine and very fruity nose reminiscent of
white-fleshed fruits and citrus fruits. The palate is supple and surprisingly
fresh. A wine with surprising balance, with richness, freshness and the
legendary minerality that characterizes the great years in Chablis. – Domaine Gueguen
