Fourchame is an agreeable and dainty Chardonnay, opening with a pleasant nose of apple, pear, citrus rind, white flowers, and vanilla spice. It takes its name from a Premier Cru vineyard in Chablis, situated on the right bank of the Serein River with its feet in clayish limestone soil.
La Chablisienne is the unsung hero of the famous Burgundy region and has played a hugely important role in the formation of the Chablis style. It began life about a century ago, as a growers cooperative. However, since the 1950s, it has been a fully fledged winery, fermenting, bottling, and selling grapes, straight from the source. They offer a stunning range of over 30 vintages, each capturing a different aspect of Chablis.
Fourchaume expresses a full-bodied yet delicate side of the region. Notes of ripe pear, green apple, and quince mesh with sharper hints of lemon zest. The wine spent about a year ageing on the lees in oak barrels, imparting woody, structural notes of vanilla and crème brûlée. And of course, there are distinctive regional hints of minerality on the finish, adding tension and finesse. Consider pairing this Chablis with a creamy dessert, ravioli, or a vegetable risotto.

La Chablisienne Chablis Premier Cru Fourchaume 2023
overall i had a positive experience, they have a wide range of wines, some which are hard to find anywhere else - the main reason i still buy from them, plus the discounts are fair and often, but... their codes for the first offer only works at the first offer, which if fine, but then why would you send me the voucher in each package i order, why spam me on the email and every time i log in on the website? this is really bothering me... then their rewards points system is useless, first of all because you only get peanuts even after spending €250 on an order, but even those peanuts will expire if you won't order again soon, which is unfair, to say the least... and lastly, if you get a corked wine, a wine with any deffect or a wine that leaked (my last order contained a bottle of $100 Caymus Cabernet with a leaking cork, which made the wine tasted cooked and flat), they have no procedure put in place for you to replace or return the wine or to get a refund or replacement - none, which is a big no no no for any wine collector... so all in all i give it 3 stars for now
