The 2020 Chablis Mont de Milieu 1er Cru from Alice et Olivier de Moor is a testament to their dedication to biodynamic practices and natural winemaking. This vintage, though slightly lower in volume, showcases the unique terroir of Mont de Milieu, a south-facing, warm microclimate. Notably, for the first time, approximately half of this cuvée was aged in clay amphorae, a technique Olivier de Moor believes has imparted greater precision to the wine. The vines are meticulously tended, with horse-ploughing employed in the vineyard. The de Moors' wines are known to benefit significantly from a bit of bottle age and decanting, allowing their full complexity to unfold. Visually, this Chablis presents a medium golden to light gold hue. On the nose, it offers a delightful bouquet, described as fine yet compact, with faintly spiced, yellow fruit freshness. Initially, the palate is characterized by very high acidity, embodying a quintessential Chablis style with prominent citrus fruits like lemon and its rind, alongside floral notes. With time in the glass, the wine beautifully evolves, gaining impressive depth, complexity, and richness, revealing golden citrus fruits such as grapefruit, stone fruits, toast, and a subtle hint of smoke. Other tasting notes highlight a super intensity of flavour, a juicy, mouth-watering quality, and a vibrant finish. While some find it zippy, lemony, and linear in its youth, its aging potential is significant, with a recommended drinking window from 2025 to 2040. Esteemed critic Neal Martin awarded it 94 points. 🍴 This exquisite Chablis is an ideal partner for delicate dishes. It pairs exceptionally well with sushi, oysters, and various seafood platters. Its vibrant acidity and minerality also make it a superb match for grilled fish, goat cheese, and poultry served in creamy sauces. 🥂 The 2020 Alice et Olivier de Moor Chablis Mont de Milieu 1er Cru is perfect for a sophisticated seafood dinner, an elegant summer garden party, or as an impressive aperitif for connoisseurs of natural wines. Its capacity for graceful aging also makes it a compelling choice for cellaring for future special occasions. 【 Biodynamic Chablis with enhanced precision from amphora aging 】
