Pascal Bouchard Chablis 1er Cru Montmains 2020 – from the left bank of the Serein in Burgundy’s Chablis region – is a finely etched Chardonnay of depth and precision. Aromas of lemon zest, white peach and crushed oyster shell lead to a layered palate of citrus, stone fruit and subtle hazelnut. The hallmark Montmains minerality runs deep, framed by vibrant acidity and a lingering, saline finish. The 2020 vintage shows excellent concentration and balance, praised by Burgundy critics for its finesse and ageing potential. A superbly crafted Premier Cru, marrying purity, texture and quiet power – classic Chablis with refined poise.
