I'm a nerd, I want every detail

This wine is 100% Melon de Bourgogne. The grapes grow on more than 50-year-old vines, on a soil with veins of granite and gneiss. This combination produces some of the driest white wines on the planet: it's all about zest and minerality, with distinct notes of lemon. Château Thébaud has a bright, striking acidity that makes it pair extremely well with shellfish. Yes, it's white and bright, but believe us, it really benefits from being opened at least two hours in advance. And most importantly, serve it as cold as you can.

 

The craft

 

  • Hand-harvested at optimal ripeness

  • 24-month aging on the lees

  • 12% ABV

  • Lifespan: 7 years

 

The occasion

 

Oysters and seafood are your best friends. As an apéritif, we also like Château Thébaud with baked cheese or spinach puff pastry.
