This great bargain is probably our most affordable Chablis at the moment. Don't let the "Petit" designation fool you. Many Petit Chablis can often outperform Chablis, quality wise. even more of a reason not to overlook this one. Like Chablis, there is a clean nose of lemon zest, sea salt and just a tiny bit lemon meringue. On the palate, also clean but, a richness then appears on the palate with a very light sea salt component. Though citrus fruit dominant, lemons, pink grapefruit, the additional mid-palate softness keeps this wine from being overbearing. So affordable that you can have it every day!

Great value Petit Chablis - crunchy, zesty, vibrant and mineral. It's full of citrus fruit and sea shell notes, its acidity is bright but not austere. Terrific wine to pair with sea scallops and other seafood.

When you're ready for the leanest, brightest, most seashelly expression of Chardonnay you can get for under $20, this is it. Fruit is minimal, though green apple and citrus are present. The acid is intense but welcome, and will be great with food. Domaine Gerard Tremblay's Petit Chablis will benefit from more time, but this salty 2022 release can certainly be enjoyed now. Try it with a summer sunset.

Gerard Tremblay is 5th generation winemaker on a 34-hectare estate located in Chablis. Most of his wines are sold locally, only a limited amount make it to our shores. This is a mineral bomb, packed with seashells and salinity for days. The fruit is mellow and dominated by citrus and salt, but not in a bad way. This is ideal for hot days and succulent oysters.

I was excited to taste this wine while I was in Chablis in early May and it did not disappoint. A great preview of the upcoming 2022 Chablis vintage this tasty Petit Chablis really showcases what has made Chablis such a popular wine. Pristine notes of wet stone, seashells and citrus zest lead into an energetic palate of salty sea spray, zesty citrus notes and crisp tannins and a racy, complex finish. This is a flat-out delicious Petit Chablis that is a killer value at less than $20. Be sure to snatch up some bottles before they inevitably sell out.

Top Value! Drink from 2023 to 2033

Additional Information:

Varietal:

Chardonnay

- It's hard to believe that up until about 30 years ago, this extremely popular varietal hid behind the veil of geographical names like Chablis and Puligny-Montrachet. Now grown all over the world and bottled by its varietal name, Chardonnay has achieved a level of branding unlike any other wine. Surprisingly, though, what you get when you buy Chardonnay can differ greatly from country to country and even within one country, depending on the climate where it's grown and how it is vinified and aged. From fresh, crisp and minerally with apple and lemon notes to rich and buttery with tropical fruit overtones, Chardonnay runs the gamut. In France's Burgundy, Chardonnay is the source of the prized wines of Chablis, Corton-Charlemagne, Mâcon, Meursault and Montrachet. It also the foundation of exceptional Champagne, where it is blended with Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier or vinified on its own into Blanc de Blancs. It is also extremely popular in California, and is gaining popularity in Australia, New Zealand, Italy, Spain and South Africa.

Country:

France

- When it comes to wine, France stands alone. No other country can beat it in terms of quality and diversity. And while many of its Region, Bordeaux, Burgundy and Champagne most obviously, produce wine as rare, as sought-after and nearly as expensive as gold, there are just as many obscurities and values to be had from little known appellations throughout the country. To learn everything there is to know about French wine would take a lifetime. To understand and appreciate French wine, one only has to begin tasting them.

Sub-Region:

Chablis

- The region north of the Cote d'Or, famous for its steely dry white wines made from Chardonnay. There are 7 Grands Crus vineyards, and numerous Premier Crus. Unfortunately, the name has been borrowed and badly abused by producers of inferior white wines in the US as well as in Australia. True French Chablis is a delicate, stony, crisp Chardonnay, bearing no resemblance to the anonymous plonk so labeled here.
