Description
"One of the outstanding domaines of the vintage – bravo!" - Bill Nanson - Burgundy Report
Made from 50 year old vines. South facing. Aged in 500L barrels for 1 year and then transferred to stainless steel for 8 months. On the top, soils are predominantly clay-limestone, brown in colour. Underneath lies the hundreds of million years Kimmeridgian limestone soil containing an infinite number of marine fossils, the classical bed rock of Chablis greatest vineyards.
‘’The 2022 Chablis Les Preuses Grand Cru is matured entirely in oak barrels. It has a composed and detailed bouquet. Touches of yellow fruit commingle with shucked oyster shells and Vervane. There’s impressive delineation here. The palate is saline and intense on the entry, with plenty of powerful citrus fruit intermixed with spices and subtle marine notes. Real depth on the finish, Vrai Grand Cru. Give it 3-4 years in bottle if you can. Tasted blind at the BIVB tasting in Chablis.’’ - 95 Points - Neil Martin - Vinous
