Stephen Tanzer, Vinous

Bright, pale yellow. Lovely perfumed lift to the aromas and flavors of lemon zest, grapefruit and white flowers. Tactile and dense but very closed on the palate, combining a sexy sweetness for the year with powerful salinity and superb depth. Most impressive today on the energetic, slowly mounting, palate-staining finish, which leaves the retronasal passage quivering. Premier cru Chablis from the region's left bank does not get much better than this.

Vincent Dauvissat

Vincent Dauvissat

An icon for Chablis and artisan winegrowers worldwide. Vincent Dauvissat's aim is to hand-tend vines with the highest respect for nature possible and to harvest fully ripe fruit that will result in wines which reflect their origins. This means Vincent often picks later than his peers, as he searches for full phenolic ripeness. Winemaking is low intervention, to allow the pure fruit and vineyards' terroirs to shine through in the wines. After malo, ageing is in neutral 6-8 years old small oak barrels. His are truly authentic wines of great character, purity and minerality. They are famously reticent in their youth but reward hugely with age.
