This is the largest and undoubtedly the most renowned of the Chablis climats and is situated between Valmur, to the West and Blanchots, to the East. Its exposure lends the wine its generous structure and strength. The term 'Les Clos' surely makes reference to the closed walls that previously surrounded the parcel but which disappeared centuries ago.

Elegant, pale golden colour with greenish glimmers. The delicate nose offers mineral, honeyed notes combined with citrus and white stone fruits. The palate is powerful, dense and fleshy with a lively acidity. Mineral and saline notes linger on the finish.

About the region

Burgundy · Chablis

Burgundy, or Bourgogne, runs north to south through eastern France, from Chablis through the Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune to the Mâconnais. Almost everything here is Pinot Noir or Chardonnay, grown on small parcels called climats that have been mapped for centuries and ranked from regional and village wines up to Premier Cru and Grand Cru. The result is wine of unusual precision: the same grape, a few hundred metres apart, tasting unmistakably different.
