Domaine de Mauperthuis Chablis Amphore

Domaine de Mauperthuis Chablis Amphore

Domaine de Mauperthuis Chablis Amphore is made from 100% Chardonnay grapes, a grape variety that has made Burgundy world famous for white wines.

A special, so-called "orange" wine, made according to methods that go back to ancient times. The hand-harvested grapes are destemmed, lightly crushed and then fermented (with wild yeast) in an amphora of red Tuscan clay. The skins remain in contact with the young wine for 12 months, after which the pulp is pressed in a vertical hand press. Then the wine is bottled without fining or filtering.

This Chablis has a deep golden yellow color with a pink sparkle. In the scent apricot jam and mango, touch of iodine, pepper, roses and acacia. Round on the palate, aromas of orange, tannin structure and a long, mineral finish.
