La Chablisienne Saint-Bris 2021 is a lovely expression of Sauvignon Blanc from the Saint-Bris appellation in Chablis.  Unlike the rest of Chablis, renowned for its mineral-driven Chardonnay, St.-Bris is a unique area within Chablis where Sauvignon Blanc is cultivated. (You might win a bet with that fun fact.)

The La Chablisienne St.-Bris offers up aromas of fresh citrus and green apple, with subtle floral notes. This wine is so transparent that you will also pick up hints of the chalky minerality on the nose as well. The palate is clean, zippy, and refreshing.

The impact of Kimmeridgian soil in St.-Bris is a testament to the profound influence of terroir on wine, offering a unique take on Sauvignon Blanc that is both refreshing and grounded in its geographical identity. This makes La Chablisienne St.-Bris not just a delightful wine, but also a fascinating study in how soil and setting can shape a wine's character of a wine. If you enjoy the flinty minerality of a Sancerre Silex, the Chablisienne Saint Bris offers an interesting alternative that you might like to explore.
