Vintage Character From the high limestone plateaus of the Petit Chablis appellation, the 2024 Domaine Mosnier Petit Chablis captures the pure essence of cool-climate Chardonnay. The 2024 growing season faced challenging spring frosts and damp weather, which dramatically reduced yields but ultimately concentrated the fruit, delivering a wine of remarkable energy and value. Grown on Portlandian soils rich in clay and calcium, the vines yield grapes with a distinctive mineral tension and vibrant, high acidity that represents the classic, refreshing profile of this northern Burgundy sub-region.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing This brilliant straw-colored white wine reveals lively aromas of green apple, lemon zest, and white peach, underscored by subtle hints of white blossom. On the palate, its light-to-medium body is defined by a crisp, zippy texture and a clean finish marked by wet stone and oyster shell minerality. It is an exceptional pairing for fresh oysters, a classic French goat cheese salad, or Cantonese-style steamed sea bass.
Winery Background Domaine Mosnier was established in Beines in 1978 by Sylvain Mosnier, who built the estate from just two hectares of vines. Today, his daughter Stéphanie works alongside him, blending traditional practices with modern precision to maintain sustainable viticulture. By fermenting and aging their wines entirely in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, the family preserves the raw purity of the Chardonnay grape, cementing their reputation as a benchmark producer of authentic, un-oaked Chablis.
