2022 Petit Chablis, Domaine Jean Goulley
Chablis, Burgundy, France
Domaine Jean Goulley is well regarded for its mineral style of Chablis that has a purity and vivacity that pays homage to the Chablis of the past. 2019 is being hailed as an excellent vintage in Burgundy, with Chablis being no exception. The grapes were harvested at optimum maturity and were fermented with natural yeast in temperature-controlled vats using organic principles. Philippe believes in highlighting terroir, and he produces his wines in an unoaked style, allowing them to reveal the purity, minerality and vitality of the soil.
In the glass, this 2022 Chablis is pure, lively and full of minerality, showcasing the Goulley style. Starting with clean, pronounced greengage aromas and a steely mineral, saline character. A classic Chablis with a mouthwateringly razor sharp finish.

Domaine Jean Goulley was formed in 1986 by Jean Goulley and is now run by his son Philippe. The family own 4.5 hectares in the Premier Cru districts which are the heart and soul of the Domaine. They own approximately 18 hectares in total and produce around 11,000 cases a year. In 1991, the domain became one of the very first certified organic producers in Chablis. All of the vineyards are farmed organically and the wines are produced with restricted use of sulphur. Philippe believes the organic farming methods permit expressive and sustainable soil. Their wines are mineral, pure and lively.
The grapes were harvested at optimum maturity and were fermented in temperature controlled stainless steel vats using organic principles and natural yeasts. The wine was left on its lees to impart more texture and body. Made in an unoaked style, to retain the purity of fruit and to let the characteristics of the terroir shine through. Restricted use of sulphur was used during the vinification and the wine was lightly filtered, prior to bottling.
