Domaine Gerard Duplessis Chablis Premier Cru Mont De Milieu 2023

The 2023 Domaine Gérard Duplessis Chablis Premier Cru Mont de Milieu is an exceptional, powerful, and deeply mineral French white wine sourced from one of the most highly regarded, south-facing Premier Cru slopes in Chablis. It pours a brilliant pale gold-straw hue in the glass, lifting with an intense, high-toned bouquet of ripe yellow orchard fruits, lemon confit, and white flowers, underpinned by a dense layer of wet stone, flint, and saline sea spray. On the palate, this medium-to-full-bodied white is remarkably pure and fruit-forward, showing more richness and sun-ripened concentration than neighboring crus while retaining a razor-sharp precision. Driven by a racy, electric acidity and aged carefully on fine lees, it transitions effortlessly into a long, bone-dry finish anchored by a persistent, chalky mineral grip.

Food Pairing: Pairs beautifully with premium seafood dishes such as butter-poached lobster tails, pan-seared scallops, grilled sea bass with a citrus reduction, roasted chicken breast in a wild mushroom cream sauce, or aged Comté and goat cheeses.
