{"product_id":"oliver-tricon-chablis","title":"Oliver Tricon Chablis","description":"\u003cp\u003eRaised by farming and wine growing , I worked in various French regions, then as a cellar master on the family estate. In tandem, I worked as a broker, which led quickly to me setting up my own wine merchant’s. In 1998, I bought Domaine de Vauroux, while developing my wine merchant business. Being in the position to work 4km from Chablis meant I didn’t lose my identity and enabled me to see the big picture and thus work in a completely independent manner. Once my wine has been bottled I don’t really have much more to say about it, rather I prefer to let it speak for itself and to share it with you. A discreet and demanding man, Olivier Tricon has built up a team of twenty or so people around him and he enjoys transmitting his knowledge. His wife Valerie, a granddaughter of winegrowers, assists her husband on the estate. Oliver Tricon has a presence in various international markets, and travels the world marketing his wines. He’s got a weak spot for the land of the rising sun, and exports his wine throughout the world – to Russia, Germany, Scandinavia, Japan, China, and so on. On these trips he makes many discoveries and spends time with his customers. The wines of Maison Olivier Tricon are the fruit of an encounter between exceptional “terroir“ and ancient savoir-faire that is constantly being perfected and enriched. The vines draw their mineral energy from deep in the marl limestone. The famous Kimmeridgean rock below them is what gives Chablis wines their pure, crystalline character. The typical features of Kimmeridgien are very hard, compact layers of limestone alternating with softer layers of argillaceous marl containing fossilized marine organism (shells). The Chardonnay grape, the traditional white varietal of the Burgundy winegrowing region, faithfully translates the nuances of each plot in the estate.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"IWS","offers":[{"title":"750mL \/ 12 \/ 2023","offer_id":45620228718788,"sku":"133048-2023","price":480.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/3538\/5028\/files\/oliver-tricon-chablis-750ml-12-2023-wine-173.webp?v=1766475657","url":"https:\/\/www.grandwinecellar.com\/products\/oliver-tricon-chablis","provider":"Grand Wine Cellar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
