2022 Chablis, Fourchaume, Héritage, 1er Cru, Le Domaine d'Henri

Description

The 2022 Chablis, Fourchaume, Héritage, 1er Cru, by Le Domaine d’Henri, comes from vines planted in 1937 in L’Ardillier, in the northern part of L’Homme Mort. It is aged 50% in barrel, with the rest in stoneware jars and tank. It has the feel of a Grand Cru: statuesque, authoritative, and rigorous—if a little monolithic for now.

Critics reviews

Jasper Morris MW 91-93/100

From amphora, fallen clear. Reductive on the nose, yet generous and juicy on the palate with an appealing crisp finish, along with the glycerol of the vintage. From foudre 2018 Stockinger), which still has a bit of oak to show, on the nose. Some bitterness behind. From demi muid Schnecken Leitner 2017): clear colour, more vinous, quite a yeasty nose as well, just a touch of oak, but a very good acid balance and length.

Drink 2027 - 2032

About this wine

Fourchaume

Fourchaume

Winemaking in La Fourchaume, a prestigious Premier Cru vineyard in Chablis, involves meticulous processes to capture the essence of its terroir. The southeast-facing slope ensures optimal sun exposure for the Chardonnay grapes. The Kimmeridgian limestone soils with fossils contribute distinct mineral flavours. Stainless steel fermentation preserves freshness, while ageing highlights the grape's natural attributes.
