2023 Domaine Gautheron Chablis Organic, Cuvee Emeraude
Certified Organic Chablis of Exceptional Purity — The Emerald Cuvee
The 2023 Domaine Gautheron Chablis Cuvee Emeraude is the domaine's certified organic flagship: a wine grown without synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or fertilisers, allowing the Kimmeridgian terroir to express itself with even greater purity and transparency. Organic farming in Chablis is no small undertaking — the region's cool damp climate makes disease pressure a constant challenge.
Tasting Notes
Pale gold with a luminous emerald-tinged clarity that gives the cuvee its name. Ripe lemon, green apple, and white peach lead, followed by the classic Kimmeridgian signature of wet flint, crushed chalk, and a subtle oyster-shell minerality. The 2023 vintage adds a touch of extra fruit generosity. Medium-bodied with vibrant refreshing acidity, a silky texture, and a long clean mineral finish.
Food Pairing
The Emeraude's citrus precision, mineral purity, and gentle fruit richness make it superb with refined seafood. We love it with Hokkaido Sashimi-Grade Sea Scallops from My Meat Man — seared in brown butter with lemon, the sweet plump scallops are a magnificent match for the wine's oyster-shell minerality and organic Kimmeridgian purity.
Why This Is a Smart Buy
