2023 L&C Poitout Petit Chablis is a vibrant and refreshing expression of Chardonnay from the northern reaches of the Burgundy region. This wine showcases the hallmark crispness and minerality associated with Petit Chablis, with an inviting nose that bursts with aromas of green apple, citrus zest, and white flowers, complemented by delicate flinty notes.
On the palate, it is lively and youthful, exhibiting a bright acidity that drives the experience. The flavors of lemon and pear are layered with subtle mineral undertones, creating a clean and refreshing mouthfeel. Its light to medium body ensures an approachable style, finishing with a crisp and invigorating finish that leaves a lasting impression.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this Petit Chablis is an excellent choice for those seeking an authentic representation of the region without the complexity or pricing of its Premier Cru counterparts. It embodies the fresh, mineral-driven character of Chablis, making it a perfect pairing for seafood dishes like oysters, grilled white fish, or creamy pasta. This wine is ideal for early enjoyment and will deliver its best character within the next 2–4 years.
