{"product_id":"droin-jean-paul-benoit-chablis-1er-cru-fourchaume-blanc","title":"Jean-Paul \u0026 Benoît Droin Chablis 1er Cru Fourchaume Blanc","description":"Fourchaume is the largest of the Chablis premiers crus. It lies on the right bank of the Serein, on the same side as the grand cru hill and contiguous with it through its Vaulorent sub-climat. This bottling comes from Domaine Jean-Paul et Benoît Droin, a family estate in the town of Chablis that traces its winegrowing line to the early seventeenth century and that Benoît Droin has run since 1999. Made entirely from Chardonnay grown on Kimmeridgian limestone, the wine ferments partly in tank and partly in barrel, the two portions blended after eight to ten months, with only a small share of new oak. The 2021 came from a cool year in the region and shows citrus, green apple and a flinty, saline finish. Pair with oysters, grilled sole or a creamy goat cheese. Rows are ploughed or left grassed and treatments are kept low.\n\u003cdiv class=\"fiche-enrichie\"\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"fiche-caracteristiques\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAppellation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCHABLIS 1ER CRU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEstate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDROIN Jean Paul \u0026amp; Benoit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBourgogne, Chablis\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFrance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrape variety\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChardonnay\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColour\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFarming\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePloughed or grassed rows, low treatment levels\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"fiche-faq\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShould this wine be decanted?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e20 to 30 minutes of aeration in a decanter is recommended for age-worthy white wines, especially younger vintages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long can this wine be cellared?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis premier cru has an estimated cellaring potential of 6 to 15 years under good storage conditions (cellar at a stable 12-14 °C).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat food pairs well with this wine?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt pairs particularly well with: oysters, grilled sole, creamy goat's cheese.
