Flavour Profile
Once an official Premier Cru vineyard itself, Les Pargues sits between Premiers Crus Montmains and Vaillons, the Chablis from which sets you back up to £30 a bottle. The difference is Les Pargues was abandoned during World War I and declassified – understandable then, but not now when you taste the quality.
In the 1950s the Servin family began to restore their plot and now 50-year-old vines deliver wine of impressive concentration. Only local politics prevent it from being reinstated to its rightful status.
Seventh-generation François Servin has now handed over winemaking to his Aussie-born brother-in-law Mark Cameron. He lavishes Premier Cru attention on the vineyard, ensuring wine with the honeyed citrusy minerality of great Chablis. As Wine Advocate's William Kelley wrote of the property, "The 30-hectare Domaine Servin, ably directed by proprietor François Servin and Australian-born winemaker Marc Cameron, continues to number among Chablis's most reliable addresses".
