Duplessis Chablis Premier Cru Montmains 2020

Who: Duplessis
Where: Chablis, France
What: Chardonnay

Lilian has two parcels within Montmains, both of which are around 60 years old. They sit on a rich clay-limestone soil, the parcels being roughly one hectare each. These are vinified separately, using natural yeasts in stainless steel and spending 12 months on lees, before 6 months in barrel.

Whilst Montée de Tonnerre often sits at the pinnacle of the Premier Crus for most producers, Duplessis hold their Montmains as equal to Lilian’s parcel of Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos in terms of being the longest-lived wines of the domaine—this is a truly stunning example of the estate’s quality.

A family-owned domaine since 1895, today the estate is managed by Lilian Duplessis, having taken over from his father Gerard in 1999. Lilian converted their various plots to organic farming and has taken the family label to stratospheric new heights. Their sites are set exclusively atop the prized Kimmeridgian limestone soils. The wines are built with structure and depth of flavour as key, with an extended elevage before bottling (at least 2 winters for the Premier Cru and Grand Cru) key to the signature of the domaine. A far cry from the often insipid and lacklustre Chablis that people envision.
