Description
The story of Louis Jadot Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre stems from an intuition of Maison Louis Jadot: to capture the purest expression of the terroir of Montée de Tonnerre, one of the most renowned climats in Chablis. Located in the northernmost part of Burgundy, this Premier Cru benefits from a continental climate - with harsh winters, hot summers and frequent spring frosts - and soils of Kimmeridgian marl, rich in marine fossils, which leave an unmistakable mineral imprint. The vineyard is cultivated with a respectful approach to the land, without excessive intervention. A few years ago, the winery took a bold decision: to delay the harvest slightly in certain plots in order to achieve a more precise ripeness without losing freshness. A measured risk that has paid off in this 100% Chardonnay, a reflection of the rocky, austere character of its origin.
Winemaking
The winemaking process for Louis Jadot Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre begins with a gentle pressing of the grapes. Part of the must ferments in 456-litre barrels, providing volume and texture, while the other part is made in stainless steel tanks to preserve tension and freshness. The wine rests on its fine lees for 13 to 15 months, without excessive batonnage, allowing it to develop complexity without losing edge. It is not subjected to aggressive filtering: the intention is to preserve the full identity of the terroir.
Taste
Louis Jadot Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre is firm and vibrant in the glass. It opens with clear, unadorned notes of lime, lemon peel and green apple. Gradually hints of wet stone, flint and even a touch of dried white flower and bitter almond. The palate is tense, with a precise acidity that structures the wine from start to finish. The salinity, a direct legacy of the soil, runs elegantly across the palate. The finish is long, almost sharp, with an echo of salted butter and green tea. This is a serious Chablis, sculpted in stone, ideal for those looking for purity, nerve and truth in Chardonnay. It goes well with white fish, ceviche, grilled vegetables or a simple ripe goat's cheese.
