Pierrick Laroche Chablis Butteaux Premier Cru 1.5L 2022 frapin Beautiful intense goldButteaux is one of the climats of Premier cru Montmains which is regarded as one of the top Premier cru vineyard sites in Chablis lying beside or below Vaillons. Being one of the most southern locations for 1er cru in Chablis it is regarded as a cooler site with slightly later harvest. Here there is a very thin layer of clay which overlays the Kimmeridgian marls.
