Famille Descombe Chablis Les Oiseaux 2023 Review
The Descombes family is from the Beaujolais region and expanded into Chablis in 2017, skipping the Côte d'Or entirely. With them, they brought their passion for reforestation and sustainability, which shows in the beautifully expressive wine. Bright aromas of white flowers, oyster shells, and freshly squeezed lemons welcome the nose. The palate is mineral-driven and refreshing, while maintaining a soft, welcoming layer of fruit.
