Famille Descombe Domaine Passy le Clou Chablis Beauroy 1er Cru 2023
The story of the Descombe family as a wine producer began over a hundred years ago in 1905, when François Descombe was the mayor of the village of Saint Etienne des Oullières near Mont Brouilly. With Marine, the fifth generation representative, the vineyards have been expanded, and today the family has production not only in Beaujolais, but also in Chablis and Northern Rhône.
In addition to viticulture, each farm also takes care of nurturing the biodiversity of the environment by, for example, caring for forests. The family's plans are to plant up to 15,000 trees around their vineyards and partly in their place, because the trees protect the vineyards from both wind and frost, but also create a favorable habitat for insects, birds, bats and other small predators.
Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Chardonnay from the premier cru site of Beauroy within Chablis in Burgundy, France. The fruit grows on clay-limestone soil (Kimmeridgian). Continental and harsh climate with a dry and hot July.
Located in the Yonne department, the Chablis vineyard runs along a small river, the Serein. The climats are divided between the right bank and the left bank. Domaine Passy le Clou, owned by the Descombe family, has 21 plots scattered throughout the Chablis region, each vinified independently to best capture the expression of the terroir.
Taste Profile: Golden yellow. Expressive, aromas of white flowers (acacia, hawthorn) on a round, expressive palate that finishes dry & mineral
Winemaking Process: Strict sorting of the harvest. Pressing is done using pneumatic presses (very low pressing pressure) to avoid any risk of quality deterioration. Static settling is then carried out for 24 to 48 hours. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats. Malolactic fermentation. Finally, aging on lees lasts between 18 months and is done partly in demi-muids.
