Alain Geoffroy Chablis Domaine le Verger 2023 Magnum
DESCRIPTION
The Magnum format (1.5L) is the king of formats for the preservation and development of great white Burgundy wines. This "Domaine Le Verger" 2023 version takes advantage of this generous volume to develop its complexity more slowly and harmoniously. Sourced from 25-year-old vines on Kimmeridgian soil, this Chablis powerfully expresses the minerality of its terroir.
Like the classic bottle, this wine is a multiple medal winner (Gold at Terre de Vins, Féminalise, Burgondia), a guarantee of its exceptional quality. Winemaking in stainless steel tanks preserves freshness, while the magnum format ensures superior aging potential. It is the bottle of conviviality par excellence, ideal for large gatherings or as a memorable gift.
Upon tasting, it offers this same richness on the nose, with aromas of flowers and ripe fruits that will open up beautifully over time. On the palate, the balance between the mellowness of the fruit and the mineral liveliness is enhanced by the format. A powerful and racy finish that will masterfully accompany a large whole fish or a family-style seafood platter.
REGION
Burgundy
France
Burgundy, located in eastern France, is one of the world's most emblematic wine-growing regions, renowned for its elegant, fine and complex wines. Its semi-continental climate, marked by contrasting seasons, and its mineral-rich clay-limestone soils provide an exceptional terroir for its two king grape varieties: Pinot Noir for reds, and Chardonnay for whites. Alongside them, more discreet varieties such as Gamay and Aligoté complete the vineyard's diversity.
The vineyard stretches from the Chablisien in the north, known for its taut, mineral whites, to the Mâconnais in the south, offering accessible, gourmet cuvées. In between, the Côte de Nuits is the realm of great reds, while the Côte de Beaune excels in both reds and whites. The Côtes Chalonnaises complete the picture with wines offering excellent value for money.
