Situation
"Les Forêts" is a south-east small plot in the heart of Montmains, expressing a more mineral side of this Premier Cru appellation. Its Kimmeridgian limestone-rich subsoil gives it great power and length on the palate.
Tasting and food pairings
A left bank Premier Cru full of character. Freshness, acidity, minerality with a hint of iodine. Powerful and charming, finishing on a note of minerality on the palate. A good compromise between acidity and fruit. Generous, fleshy, long on the palate, very typical of Chablis.
Serve, pair with seafood, grilled fish and white meats in sauce.
