Famille Savary Chablis Hommage is a Chardonnay from the Chablis appellation in Burgundy, France. The nose is precise, clean and a little subdued, which lets a saline note come through. With some air, hints of ripe pear and apple appear. The palate is more exuberant, with rich, sunny fruit and a long finish of sea-front minerality typical of the appellation.
Olivier Savary and his wife, Francine, have been vignerons in Maligny, just north of Chablis, since 1984. They farm vineyards en métayage (share cropping) in Chablis and Petit Chablis, and at first sold most of their production in bulk to a négociant before bottling under their own label. Their sons, Maxime and Mathieu, now work alongside them. Their village cuvée blends grapes from vineyards across the Chablis appellation, and they also bottle a Fourchaume premier cru and an old-vine cuvée aged in demi-muids.
