🏰 The 2024 Jean Paul Droin Chablis Montée de Tonnerre 1er Cru is a 【promising Premier Cru from a challenging yet rewarding vintage, known for its exceptional freshness and minerality】. Jean-Paul & Benoît Droin, a 14th-generation estate, is celebrated for precision-driven, classically styled Chablis, with Montée de Tonnerre often approaching Grand Cru quality due to its Kimmeridgian soil and blue clay veins. The 2024 vintage, despite frost, rain, and mildew, yielded compelling wines for those who persevered. This wine's aromatic profile leans towards minerality and white fruits, with hints of white flowers, anise, menthol, brioche, and sweet spices. It offers lengthy vivacity, a saline aspect, and notes of oyster shell and flint, with crystalline citrus and white peach on the palate.
🍴 This exquisite Chablis is perfect with grilled lobster, various seafood, white fish, and crayfish carpaccio with citrus and basil oil.
🥂 Ideal for special seafood dinners, or for cellaring to enjoy its enhanced aromatic persistence and power in 5-7 years, showcasing the unique Chablis terroir.
