La Manufacture Chablis 'Forêts Vieilles Vignes' Premier Cru 2022
Vintage Character
La Manufacture Chablis 'Forêts Vieilles Vignes' Premier Cru 2022 comes from a left-bank site on Kimmeridgian limestone and marl. Chablis enjoyed warm spring weather and successful flowering at the end of May that year. Rain in late June supplied useful water before a dry July and hot August, while later showers helped the grapes retain balance as harvest approached. The cuvée is made from Chardonnay and an old-vine selection, with fermentation in stainless steel followed by oak maturation. This combination gives its concentrated fruit room to develop without losing the site's energetic profile. The timely late-summer rain in 2022 provides the key contrast to the heat, supporting a wine that combines concentrated fruit with a bright, energetic line.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
The nose is initially discreet, revealing white fruit, a hint of fruit stone and a finely mineral edge. A smooth entry leads to a concentrated, tonic palate, where lemon brings brightness and a light lavender note adds an unusual aromatic lift. The finish is persistent and clearly drawn, making the wine feel substantial without sacrificing movement. Pair with grilled sea bass or chicken in a gentle cream sauce. The former highlights its citrus line, while the latter gives the textured middle of the palate a richer accompaniment.
Winery Background
La Manufacture works through long-term partnerships with growers rather than owning a single estate vineyard. Its approach is based on identifying distinctive parcels and selecting wines with the people who know those sites closely. The name pays tribute to skilled handwork, drawing inspiration from the precision of fine watchmaking and lace-making. This small, flexible structure allows different appellations to retain their individual character within the range. The shared aim is careful selection and finesse, not a uniform recipe applied to every vineyard.
