Geographically separated from the rest of the wine region to the north, the Kimmeridgian limestone soils characterize the terroir. Here lies Chablis – Burgundy's coolest subregion and home to Chardonnays of unparalleled freshness and minerality. The climate gives the wines powerful aromas of green apple, citrus, and flint, with a mineral, almost saline depth. Chablis is Chardonnay in its purest form: pure, precise, unadorned.
