FEATURES
🏰 The 2022 Pattes Loup Chablis Cote de Jouan 1er Cru is a testament to Thomas Pico's rising star status in Chablis, known for his meticulous biodynamic farming practices. This vintage, from Demeter-certified grapes, offers remarkable purity and a distinctive character from its soft, ploughed soils. 【Biodynamically grown with Demeter certification, offering superb density and Premier Cru length】 It presents aromas of crisp orchard yellow fruit, ripe lemons, and marzipan, subtly framed by a touch of oak influence. On the palate, it's bright and structured with a chalky, phenolic finish, showcasing beautiful volume, superb density, and a length truly worthy of a Premier Cru. James Suckling notes fresh green pears, limes, and green apples, with a medium body, crispness, and mouthwatering acidity, leading to a lithe, minerally, and gastronomic finish.
🍴 This vibrant Chablis pairs wonderfully with delicate seafood. Consider classic pairings like fresh oysters, grilled scallops, crab, or lobster. Its minerality and acidity also make it an excellent match for lighter poultry dishes or goat cheese.
🥂 This is a beautiful wine that every Chablis lover should experience, perfect for a sophisticated dinner party or a special occasion. It's excellent for immediate enjoyment but also possesses the structure to age gracefully until 2035.
