Domaine Alexandre Chablis Fourchaume

Domaine Alexandre is a family business handed down over three generations. Brothers Guy and Olivier run the estate today, which is set over 13 hectares of vineyards in the heart of Chablis. The vineyards are worked with great care and yields are kept low to produce expressive wines with concentrated fruit.

Grapes are harvested mechanically before being pressed using a pneumatic press. The juice is racked over a period of 24 to 30 hours (debourbage) before being filtered and undergoing alcoholic fermentation in tank under controlled temperatures. A final clarification of the wine is carried out before maturation and then bottling on the estate before the end of July.

Elegant and lively, this wine is diverse and flavoursome on the palate. Fresh fruit and white floral notes are followed by dried fruit.  it has a very diverse aromatic palette composed, for the most part, of fresh fruit, white flowers and dried fruit. Its shelf life varies from 4 to 5 years, or even from 6 to 8 years for the best years. Pair with fish in buttered sauces, vegetable terrine or pasta.
