DESCRIPTION
In a nutshell:
A light and fruity 'baby' Chablis which is classic cool climate Chardonnay.
The lowdown:
Petit Chablis typically comes from fruit grown in vineyards that are generally a bit less chalky than the 'grown up' version thus creating wines that are less mineral, but a little more fruity. Notwithstanding that La Motte's Petit Chablis still has the characteristic steely streak combined with nice ripe fruitniess. This is an unoaked wine and has mellow citrus on the nose with plenty of ripe fruit on the palate well balanced with a good mineral backbone giving a real elegance and finesse.
When to drink:
A bit better than the name'Petit' might suggest, it's perfect on its own or with white meats, shellfish and salads.

PRODUCER
Domaine de la Motte
Domaine de la Motte is a 25 hectare, family run winery handed down from father to son since 1950. Now under the stewardship of Bernard Michaut, an ex-chef, who works with his son Adrien. Their winemaking is meticulous and the wines are benchmarks for the region. They are fastidious about producing concentrated, mineral and very precise wines which reflect the particular terroirs of Chablis, with vines on both Portlandian and Kimmeridgian soils. Motte's wines are regularly chosen for the Tastevinage label, a rigorous selection by the Confrérie des Chevaliers de Tastevin of wines they regard as offering the best of the region in terms of quality and style.
