Domaine Costal Chablis Les Truffieres 2022
Domaine Costal is a unique collaboration between the well-known Chablis producer Domaine Jean Collet and Kermit Lynch. The project began with a simple barrel tasting with Kermit, and led to the first of now two cuvées, a custom label, and custom vinification and bottling process exclusively for the American market. The vines are worked organically, and Kermit and the Collet family together agree on a blend of stainless steel, foudre, and barrel vinifications. The skill of the Collets and their excellent terroirs combine to give us wines of extraordinary purity and finesse. There is no mistaking it—one taste and you are in Chablis territory: zesty minerality, wet stone, freshness, and nervosity.
“Les Truffières” is a special partnership of the Costal project with winemaker Bernard Raveneau, the master of Chablis. It hails from the vineyard of the same name, which means “Truffles,” just north of the village of Chablis. The result is a vinification in stainless steel, barrel, and foudre, and a wine alluding to an essence of truffles, leading to why the vineyard may have been called “Les Truffières.”
Chablis lovers don’t miss this!
Winemaker Notes: Chablis from a vineyard named Les Truffières, part of the fun is deciding whether or not it shows some black truffle.
