Domaine 47°N 3°E - Chablis "Cairn" 2022

This Chablis Cairn offers a round expression with a light barrel touch.

Standing at the crossroads of latitude 47° North and longitude 3° East our latest Chablis producer, Guillaume Michaut, cultivates three confidential plots in the heart of Chablis. Planted in 2000 by my father Christian Michaut, this 39 ares vineyard is located in a micro valley in my native village. Like all the vines exploited at Domaine 47°N 3°E, I have been cultivating this vine since 2017 using organic farming techniques in view of obtaining AB approval in three years.

Extra breadth to this nose – framed with an immodest oak – but becomes a more and more perfumed nose – air reducing the impact of the barrel. A rounder impression in the mouth – fine texture and a faint grain of tannin. A wine that impresses but I’d personally be waiting 3-5 years for the barrel to fade. The finish is very long. - Burgundy Report.
