Christophe et Fils Chablis 1er Cru Fourchaume 2023:
This gem comes from the beloved Fourchaume to the north, along the right bank of the Serein. Wines cut off this soil are complex and super intense, distinguishing itself from the rest of the region with its elegance, finesse and roundness. It’s textbook 1er cru Chablis that slowly unveils incredible depth and sophistication in the glass. Made from mostly clay soil that drains well and runs deep to the roots, this has an incredible combo of pineapple, grapefruit, chalky minerality, wildflower, and granny smith apple…all delightful and with that famous Chablis cut.

Christophe et Fils Chablis 1er Cru Mont de Milieu 2023:
This 1er cru comes from vines planted in the 1980s on a moderately steep slope that just yields the most amazing clusters. This is also Kimmeridgian limestone soil at it’s very best and that minerality radiates throughout the wine. It’s textbook 1er cru Chablis that slowly unveils incredible depth and sophistication in the glass. You’ve got everything here: lemongrass, grapefruit, chalky intense minerality, wildflower, and granny smith apple with a wonderful, layered mid-palate and so much focus and energy. What a beauty.

Christophe et Fils is basically a one man show. There’s no sign post chez Sébastien Christophe. He doesn’t need it. His wines aren’t to be found in the local restaurants and no bottles are spared for the expert reviewers. Every year – his entire production is completely pre-sold – mostly to well-heeled private collectors in Britain and a few of the top restaurants in the world.

To hear Sébastien tell it, you don’t even get the impression that he fashions himself a winemaker – he might be more comfortable with the moniker – ‘winegrower’ as he’s really more of a passionate farmer.

Perhaps that’s just in his blood. For the record, Sébastien is an incredible winemaker but he also has a bit of luck on his side. He was lucky enough to inherit some extremely valuable parcels (some his grandfather himself planted back 1959!) located behind the Grand cru slope and Premier crus of the Serein river’s right bank.
