The perfect match - 89p

At a restaurant the other day we were served one of my favourite fish, “lange” in Norwegian, Common Ling in English. This fine white fish has a lot in common with cod, maybe not as delicate, but very good when prepared right. And we were lucky to have a great chef serve up a fine meal. To accompany the fish we went with a safe pick, a good quality Chablis. It is never wrong to drink Chablis, but with white fish it is almost obligatory!

Domaine Camille & Laurent Schaller is a family estate based in Préhy, a village in the heart of the Chablis vineyard. Laurent and his son Camille cultivate three grape varieties: Chardonnay, Aligoté and Pinot Noir. This weeks wine is their Chablis. Made from 100% Chardonnay in limestone and clay soil, the average age of the vines is 30 years. After the pressing and fermentation the wine is left to mature for 10 month in steel tanks on fine lees.

Camille et Laurent Schaller Chablis 2022 - 299,- kr

Lovely, sunny day at the sea on the nose, just what you would like from a Chablis. Great acidity in the mouth together with lime, ripe red apples and some red berry. Good weight in the mouth as well and a very long aftertaste. a great wine that is perfect with any kind of white fish.
