In aroma and taste, many minerals of the Kimmeridge-terroir. The taste is refined and fresh, with fine acids and a nice structure.Refined nose featuring nuances of apple and citrus, as well as floral notes and brioche. Lively and crisp dry with a delicate mousse, aromas of ripe citrus fruit, minerality, good tension, and a clean, intense finish.
Delicious as an aperitif, with oysters, shellfish, light fish dishes, and poultry.

About the winemaker
Domaine Costal is a collaboration between the renowned American wine importer Kermit Lynch and Chablis farmer Jean Collet, which arose after a discussion during a "barrel-tasting" in Collet's cellar. Today, Domaine Costal offers from Petit Chablis to Chablis Grand Cru, mostly from grapes sourced from organically farmed vineyards. The vinification varies from wine to wine, there are wines with only stainless steel as well as wines aged in concrete and French oak.
