Tight flesh, wonderfully athletic but without overdoing it. Next to the classic Chablis rigour, a silky, dense sensation is added, probably as a result of the wine's stay with the lees for several months. It is ripe but not with an intensely creamy and boringly buttery texture. Juicy citrus balances the mineral side of the wine and blends harmoniously...
Stylish and extremely complex on the nose, notes of ripe lemon and citrus jam, freshness of mint and pompous mineral character along with tobacco. On the palate there is the classic - a la Chablis - rigour but with dense texture and depth of fruit, in a yin-yang type of interconnection that leads to perfect balance. The tensions on the palate testify to...
Petite Lily is produced with the same care and attention as the estate’s more prestigious wines. It follows strict biodynamic practices and clearly expresses the limestone terroir of Climens. In short, it is a refined introduction to the estate’s dry wines at an exceptionally accessible price. Harvesting is done by hand, ensuring the highest quality of...
The name Asphodèle comes from the asphodel flower, a symbol of light and rebirth, a character that is reflected in the wine itself: bright, refined, and full of energy. It represents the renewal of a region through a different approach—perhaps atypical, yet extremely timely for its era. Vinification is carried out with respect and without intervention....
The vinification of Lilium follows the same biodynamic approach that defines Château Climens, where every step is carried out with respect for the natural environment. The wine ferments with indigenous yeasts and matures in small glass vessels (WineGlobes), reflecting the estate’s relentless pursuit of absolute purity in the wine’s character—a goal it...
Le Prieuré de Saint-Céols was founded just 20 years ago on the remains of an old monastic convent of Benedictine monks of the 13th century by Pierre Jacolin. In 2020, the baton was passed on to Marie and Joseph de Maistre who took over the estate and cultivate it with organic farming principles and great care. For 15 years, no herbicides have ever been...
Facing such a great terroir you can only stand in awe and respect. The effort to minimize interventions is aimed at enhancing the potential of the old vineyards. They seem to unfold their "memories" in the wine, giving great complexity and absolute balance. Without excesses, but full-bodied and rich, with charmingly ripe fruit along with multiple aromatic...
The spicy, salty, orange-tinged character of Tradition Rose is a departure from a mainstream world that wants rosés in a certain style. The almost forgotten Tibouren, an ancient grape of the Mediterranean basin, is a "champion" for the estate and covers over 50% of the total plantings. In Cuvee Tradition it constitutes 90% of the blend and after maturing...
Vinification takes place in stainless steel tanks without the addition of commercial yeasts, relying instead on native fermentation. The wine remains on fine lees for an extended period, which imparts a pronounced “yeasty” character alongside the vibrant fruit. On the palate, the acidity is tense, sharp, and linear—bringing precision and energy that...
Sklavos' unstoppable experimentation both in the Robola zone on the slopes of Mount Ainos and on the peninsula of Paliki yield small quantity vinifications every year that through the philosophy of the winery elevate the sense of the terroir from which they come. Pernari is a single-vineyard vinification from a vineyard in the Lakomati subzone with its...
