In Maligny – as far north in Chablis as you can get – on the right bank of the river Serein, Domaine Daniel Séguinot is a small, 27 hectare estate founded in 1971. It is now run by Daniel’s charming and very switched-on daughters, Emilie and Laurence. Since they took over the running of the business from their father they have been instrumental in the move to domaine-bottled wines, produced without oak in a very pure, linear style.
Vinification
A small holding of 4 hectares on south-west facing Kimmeridgian slopes which bring the grapes to full ripeness despite the marginal climate. Classic, cool fermentation in stainless steel at 15 – 18 degrees Celsius.
Tasting Notes
Very fine fruit with an abundance of texture; there is also finesse and a classic saline acidity to the finish.
With rich fruit aromas, this Chablis is best served lightly chilled. An ideal and classic partner to seafood and stronger flavoured fish such as crab or smoked haddock.
