Chablis<br />
Maligny-par-Chablis<br />
Lamblin Fils<br />
The last two years have been tough for the Lamblin<br />
family. Unlike other areas of Burgundy, the 2017<br />
vintage in Chablis generally saw an increase<br />
in production compared to 2016 (although the<br />
volume produced was still much below average).<br />
Unfortunately for the Lamblins, frost struck Maligny,<br />
Lignorelles and La Chapelle-Vaupelteigne on the<br />
night of April 19th - precisely where Lamblin’s<br />
grapes are grown – and caused their wine<br />
production to be down 40% from an average year.<br />
Premiers and Grands Crus sites were particularly<br />
affected, thus no Grand Cru from Lamblin is<br />
available this year.<br />
“We start the harvest when<br />
the balance between the<br />
natural sugar contents<br />
and acidity is considered<br />
optimal.”<br />
