Thomas Labille Chablis 2022
Showing all the hallmarks of classic Chablis, with lively citrus fruits layered with mineral overtones. Crisp, and bone dry with a lovely supple texture through to a bright, fresh finish.
The grapes were carefully selected to ensure only the highest quality fruit was vinified. Fermentation took place in temperature controlled stainless steel vats, with selected yeasts. Once fermentation was complete, the wine was matured on its fine lees lasting six to eight months, before being gently fined and filtered prior to bottling. This cuvée was produced in an unoaked style to showcase the purity of the fruit and the nuances of the terroir.

Thomas Labille is an accomplished winemaker based in the heart of Chablis, where he creates eponymous cuvées bearing all the hallmarks of top-quality Chablis. The domaine was founded in 1987 and at that time covered just 11 hectares of vine and 80 hectares of cereal. By 1992, the estate had abandoned cereal production and focussed on producing quality wine. Significant investments took place in the winery and the estate flourished, producing award-winning wines. In 2019, Thomas Labille took over the reins, with his natural flair for winemaking and following a philosophy for sustainable viticulture, his cuvées are expressive, beautifully balanced and show wonderful Chablis typicity. The estate is HVE certified.
