Samuel’s Montée de Tonnerre is a blend of two parcels, one of which lies alongside that of Raveneau’s. It has a wonderfully spicy scent, reminiscent of ginger. The palate is savoury and taut, with a tingling freshness on the finish. 20% is raised in oak, giving the fruit further breadth.
From two domaine plots, planted in 1971 and 1976. Clean pale yellow with a powerful bouquet, classic Montée de Tonnerre. The concentration is really impressive, not too exotic. Rather buttery at the finish, though then the minerals return. A question of time.
The 2023 Chablis Montée de Tonnerre 1er Cru comes from two plots in Chapelot and one in Montée de Tonnerre itself. It has a refined bouquet with a mixture of white and yellow fruit, fine mineralité and focus. The palate is very well balanced with a sapid entry, just a hint of white peach and almond. Still, it is very tensile and citric on the finish. Excellent.
