Appearance & Nose:
A beautiful pale white-gold with soft green highlights. The nose is powerful, generous, and refined, revealing aromas of peach, apricot, and delicate white flowers.
Palate:
The palate is ample yet elegant, perfectly balancing freshness, minerality, and floral nuances, offering a lingering and harmonious finish.
Terroir:
Chablis 1er Cru Mont de Milieu comes from the right bank, home to the region’s Grand Crus. The name recalls a historic border that once ran through the middle of this hill between the County of Champagne and the Duchy of Burgundy. Its south-southeast facing slopes are sheltered from the wind by surrounding woods, while the consistent limestone subsoil promotes long, slow maturation, resulting in wines of exceptional finesse and complexity.

Nestled in Fleys, a quaint village of just 150 inhabitants on Chablis’ eastern hills, Domaine Gautheron spans 30 hectares across three AOPs: Petit Chablis, Chablis, and Chablis Premier Cru. Its vineyards are planted on four distinguished climats: Vaucoupin, Les Fourneaux, Mont de Milieu, and L’Homme Mort.
A family-owned estate for more than seven generations, Domaine Gautheron is now led by Cyril Gautheron, with the support of his father Alain, crafting some of the appellation’s most refined wines.
Cyril is dedicated to expressing the unique character of each terroir, producing graceful wines that preserve Chablis’ crisp, traditional elegance. From the approachable Petit Chablis to the finely sculpted Premier Cru wines, Domaine Gautheron enjoys wide recognition in the international wine trade for its finesse and authenticity.
