- CHABLIS 'SAINT PIERRE' ALBERT PIC 2023 DESCRIPTION
- Albert Pic's Chablis Saint Pierre€ is a white wine, mineral and with great potential produced in the Chablis area, which constitutes the northernmost part of the French region of Burgundy. In this area, the continental climate combined with strong temperature variations and the peculiar characteristics of the soil, rich in marl and clayey limestone with a subsoil characterized by the presence of marine fossils dating back over 145 million years, gives these wines a very characteristic mineral stamp. The "Saint Pierre" is obtained from pure Chardonnay grapes from vines grown with the spurred cordon method and located on the right bank of the Serein river. The winery, founded way back in 1755, is the oldest reality in this region and is today owned by Baron Patrick de Ladoucette. Thanks to constant work in the vineyard and the selection of the best clones, Albert Pic has managed to maintain a strong bond with the territory, giving all its labels great typicality and expressiveness.
- The “Saint Pierre” Chablis is obtained from grapes harvested exclusively by hand and carefully selected both in the vineyard and in the cellar. The bunches brought to the cellar are destemmed, crushed and gently pressed to separate the pulp from the skins. At this point, the precise desire of the winery to characterize its products by exalting what the territory is, leads to the choice of having the alcoholic fermentation of this Chablis take place only in neutral steel or cement containers, as well as the subsequent refinement, so as not to lose its vibrant, almost nervous freshness.
- The Chablis "Saint Pierre" by Albert Pic presents itself to the eye with a very bright straw yellow color. Aromas of fresh fruit appear on the nose, including white peach and green apple, exotic fruit, floral and citrus notes and then open up towards iodine scents and notes of brioche bread. In the mouth it is pleasant and well structured, with a well
- balanced body with the great freshness that characterizes the finish of the sip.
