1er Cru White Burg’s Best Price to Quality Ratio

1er Cru White Burg’s Best Price to Quality Ratio
Chablis 1er Cru

Chablis 1er Cru is easily the best overall category for incredible price to quality ratio. There is no other Premier Cru sub-region of Burgundy that is delivering the consistency and overall quality for the money than Chablis.

The popularity of Chablis has boomed over the past twenty years with great reason. The quality of the wines has skyrocketed across all the producers and the consistency from year to year has never been better. Luckily for us, the price escalation of Chablis 1er Cru has been moderate and many wines remain obtainable in terms of price and quantity. It really is a great time to be a Chablis drinker!

Cheers,
Jeremy
