Jean-Marc Brocard
Jean-Marc says "The truth of wine lies in the soil where it has grown. The technique is an important factor in the wine growing, but it is only an aid, the wine is essentially the product of its soil." also " The soil of Chablis is exceptional and cannot be found anywhere in the world ; therefore I am a hard believer of the future of Chablis even for the next Millennium."
Produced from a portlandian soil which consists of limestone stratum. Petit Chablis is the fruitiest wine among the Chablis appellations. Its typical mineral touch comes from the vineyard. It is appetising and refreshing.
