Vaillons

2011 Chablis Premier Cru White Blend

Nicolas Potel Vaillons is an exquisite white blend from the renowned Chablis Premier Cru region, showcasing the classic elegance of this famed area in Burgundy, France. The wine presents a beautiful pale straw color that hints at its refreshing nature. On the palate, it offers a light to medium body, balanced by bright acidity that invigorates the senses. The fruit intensity is prominent, with delightful notes of green apple and citrus that are characteristic of Chardonnay and other varietals typically found in the blend. Its dryness is well-defined, allowing the refreshing flavors to shine through without being overshadowed. The overall composition is enhanced by subtle mineral undertones, a signature trait of Chablis terroir, making this vintage a delightful pairing for seafood or light dishes. With its charming complexity, Nicolas Potel Vaillons embodies the essence of the Chablis region, promising an enjoyable tasting experience.

France

While it was not the first country to master winemaking, no other country has determined the course of wine and wine culture as much as France. From the sparkling wines of Champagne to the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay of Burgundy; from Bordeaux's sumptuous blends to Alsace's Riesling; and from the Loire Valley's Sauvignon Blancs to exciting new regions like Pays d'Oc in the south, France has given the world nearly all the major styles and grape varieties that dominate what we drink today. There are numerous reasons why France and wine are so inextricably linked, but perhaps the foremost is geography. Few places can rival France's unique array of hot and cool-climate regions and the abundant maritime influences and mountainous terrain found throughout the country.
