Domaine Servin Chablis Premier Cru Mont de Milieu 2017

This exemplary 17th century estate is today run by François Servin, assisted by his Australian brother-in-law Marc Cameron, described in Vinous as "a thoughtful and talented winemaker." Together they make wines of “great elegance, purity and length” (Jefford) – from village Burgundy up to the lofty levels of Grand Cru. The vineyards of this prized region lie, of course, 100 km north of the rest of Burgundy, which accounts for their steely edge balancing the roundness of Chardonnay. This Premier Cru lies on a steep hill, with excellent exposure, next to the Grand Cru slopes. With 90-92 points, Mont de Milieu 2017 is beautifully poised. It's young, so decant early or pour into large bowled glasses. Serve with fine seafood or poultry dishes.
