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.
