Organic/Bio Lower ABV Always the most intense, pure, and “Chablis” of the 1er Crus here and shining more brightly than ever in 2022. It’s from one of the warmer sites in Chablis and, like the Grand Crus, with prime southern exposure. So Mont de Milieu typically gives wines of more body and richness and most other 1er sites and, in warm years, can flirt with over-ripeness and the exotic. At Malandes, though, Mont de Milieu is also always loaded with zippy acids and crunchy chalk minerality.
“Top Value! A vaguely exotic note lurks in the background of the cool but ripe mix of white and yellow peach, quinine and acacia blossom that is trimmed in soft wood. There is both excellent volume and power to the larger-scaled flavors that possess notably better complexity on the saliva-inducing, balanced and beautifully persistent finish. As is often the case chez Malandes, this is the best of their premier crus.”
“The 2022 Chablis 1er Cru Mont de Milieu is showing well, exhibiting aromas of waxy citrus rind and green apple mingled with toasted nuts, flowers and a subtle hint of oak. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and fleshy, with racy acids and a gently vanillin-inflected finish, it will show well with a bit of bottle age to integrate. Drink 2023-2035”
