Vintage Character From the prestigious Premier Cru slopes of Chablis, the 2023 Domaine Mosnier Chablis 'Côte de Léchet' Premier Cru beautifully showcases its historic terroir. The 2023 vintage in Chablis benefited from a warm, sun-drenched growing season balanced by timely late-summer rains, yielding exceptionally healthy, concentrated grapes with brilliant acidity. This wine hails from Côte de Léchet, a renowned Left Bank climat characterized by steep, sun-exposed slopes rich in Kimmeridgian limestone and fossilized oyster shells, which forces the Chardonnay vines to struggle and imparts an intensely stony, mineral character.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing Opening with vibrant aromas of Meyer lemon, green apple, and wet stones, this white Burgundy displays a remarkably pure and focused palate. It delivers a chiselled texture defined by razor-sharp acidity, carrying flavors of white peach and crushed oyster shell into a long, saline-flecked finish. Pair this energetic white wine with classic pan-seared scallops in butter sauce, fresh oysters on the half shell, or Cantonese steamed garlic prawns.
Winery Background Established as a dedicated family estate, Domaine Mosnier is now guided by Stéphanie Mosnier, who joined her father Sylvain in 2007 to steer the property toward sustainable viticulture. The estate emphasizes low-intervention practices to let the Kimmeridgian soils speak clearly in every glass. Vinification occurs in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, avoiding heavy wood contact to protect the innate energy, purity, and crisp, crystalline expression that makes their Côte de Léchet a benchmark representation of the appellation.
