Description

After a dry and mild winter, flowering took place very early in the spring (more than 2 weeks in advance) and with no spring frost at all. Summer has been very hot and dry as well with a rainfall deficit of -40%. 2020 is the hottest year after 2003.

However, the harvest which started on August 28th was totally healthy and the rain which finally fell mid-august helped reduce drought stress. Degrees are lower than 2018/2019 and acidity levels are higher, so 2020 shows with more tension than previous years and is more a « typical »vintage of Chablis. Very aromatic, with fruits and white flowers flavours, while keeping a nice minerality, it is a generous and delicate wine, perfect with fish and shellfish, but also with poultry and all-white meat.
