A classic and beautifully precise Chardonnay from Chablis in northern Burgundy, Domaine Alexandre’s 2024 offers the freshness, purity and distinctive mineral character for which the appellation is renowned. Elegant and finely balanced, it combines crisp citrus and orchard fruit with subtle floral notes and a refreshing, stony finish.
Tasting Notes:
Pale lemon-gold in colour with green highlights, the nose is fresh and expressive with aromas of green apple, lemon and white peach complemented by white blossom and a subtle chalky minerality. The palate is crisp and finely textured, showing citrus, pear and orchard fruit alongside lively acidity and a characteristic flinty, mineral edge. Clean and beautifully balanced, the finish is long, refreshing and distinctly saline.
Winemaking:
Produced from 100% Chardonnay grown in the cool climate and limestone-rich soils of Chablis. The grapes are carefully pressed and fermented under controlled conditions to preserve their natural freshness, purity and delicate aromatics. Maturation focuses on retaining the vibrant fruit, crisp acidity and mineral expression that define classic Chablis, resulting in an elegant and terroir-driven style.
Food Pairing:
An excellent match for oysters, shellfish, grilled white fish and seafood platters. It also pairs beautifully with roast chicken, goat’s cheese, creamy seafood dishes, fresh salads and lightly grilled vegetables.
ABV: 12.5%
