Dominique & Romain Collet Chablis Mont De Milieu Premier Cru Recolte 2

Mont de Milieu is a fan-shaped vineyard, on the right bank of the Serein River where the soils are white and chalky. The average age of the Collet vines is 45 years old, partially replanted in 2000 by Romain's father, Gilles, with a special small berry clone (#75). Organic all the way. The wine is fermented and aged in demi-muids of 600-liter size for about 10 months, then moved to stainless steel tanks briefly prior to bottling. Mont de Milieu is rich and broad in character. Fresh and fleshy on the palate, this will take age in the bottle very well. It's defining right-bank trait is that fine dart of salinity. Vin de cuisine!
