It shows ripe white fruit and stone fruit aromas, a precise mineral core, and notable depth and structure. The vineyard area for this cuvée is 1.4195 hectares, with very mature vines averaging around 40 years. The name “Hommage à Louis” originates from the family’s historic parcel formerly labelled as the Grand Cru “Les Clos”, but due to a boundary dispute with the INAO the label had to change; though the same vines and terroir are used. The soil mix in the vineyard is rich: top slope area is stonier and more calcareous, mid slope contains a band of blue clay, lower down deeper clay soils. All are Kimmeridgian limestone based soils typical of Chablis Grand Cru.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRegion\u003c\/b\u003e: Burgundy || \u003cb\u003eWinery\u003c\/b\u003e: \u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eDomaine Jean Paul \u0026amp; Benoit Droin\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGrapes\u003c\/b\u003e: 100% Chardonnay\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: black; mso-themecolor: text1;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAging\u003c\/b\u003e: Matured in the estate’s cellars for approximately 10-12 months (assemblage after 8-10 mo) with a portion aged in French oak barrels (40% oak for this vintage) before bottling\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eABV\u003c\/b\u003e: 13% || \u003cb\u003eDecant\u003c\/b\u003e: 20-30 minutes || \u003cb\u003eServing Temp\u003c\/b\u003e: 11-13°C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePairing\u003c\/b\u003e: Lobster or large sea scallops with beurre blanc or truffle butter; turbot or fine white fish in an almond\/parsley sauce\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTasting Notes:\u003c\/b\u003e The 2021 Chablis Grand Cru \u003cem data-end=\"44\" data-start=\"27\"\u003eHommage à Louis\u003c\/em\u003e, Jean Paul \u0026amp; Benoît Droin shows a pale straw gold hue with a green tinge. The nose reveals white flowers, ripe peach, lemon zest, flint, and oyster shell. Medium to full bodied on the palate, it offers layered fruit, crisp acidity, and a firm mineral core with elegant tension.
