Chardonnay, Isabelle et Denis Pommier 'Hautrivien'
This Petit-Chablis is made using a blend of parcels from both limestone and Chablis's famous Kimmeridgian soils. Isabelle and Denis Pommier have been organic since 2009 and all grapes are hand-harvested. Aged on the lees in tank for 6 months, this wine is both fruity and minerally, and is meant to be consumed young.
The estate of Isabelle and Denis Pommier was founded in 1990 when the Pommiers, a young couple at the time, decided to take over two hecrates of their family’s land to produce their own wines. It took them a few years to get it down right, and their first bottled release was in 1994. The estate now spans 16 hectares of vineyards with appellations ranging from Petit Chablis all the way up to thier three Chablis premiers crus of Fourchaume, Cote de Lechet and Troesmes [a sub-parcel in Beauroy].
