Vaillons Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2016

Young, fresh, still quite primary fruit in this younger 1er Cru Vaillons, some tart lemon acidity, some fine minerality, a floral note as well, medium-long finish, needs a little more aging (2-4 years?) for my palate, but very, very nice!! — 2 months ago

Vaillons Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2021

2021 vintage. Decanted and tasted after 30 minutes at approximately 55 degrees. Medium body. Powerful core of acidic/citric concentration swaddled by delicate lanolin and oak. Textbook essential Chablis yet clinical and complicated. Spectacular. 2.25.26. — 3 months ago

Irancy Pinot Noir 2022

From a minuscule plot that covers barely more than an acre; this is one of Vincent Dauvissat’s rare red wines. Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of 90 minutes. The 2022 Irancy pours a slightly dull, ruby color with a translucent core; medium viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, fresh and funky notes of strawberry with stems, red flowers, and a mix of cool and warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. A round and balanced expression of Irancy. No doubt the vintage comes into play. Lovely stuff with charming personality. Drink now through 2037. — 2 months ago

@Tom Casagrande believe it or not, I didn’t even know this existed until I was at a restaurant in Reims, late last year and it was on the list. I was like, 😳.

Fourchaume Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2014

Lovely aged 1er Cru Chablis, still quite fresh and lively, great fruit and complexity, lots of balancing acidity, I think the 2014 Cote de Lechet might be the top 2014 1er Cru, but this is darn good as well, long finish, “weird” perception on my palate, but I definitely perceived a subtle, yet distinct, “toasted coconut” note at one point (common in the beer pastry stout arena)!! — 2 months ago

I usually only taste coconut in aged Rioja.

@Dave, I agree, that’s why I noted it, I do like coconut — a LOT — in double pastry stout beers!!

That sounds good to me.

Montmains Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2014

25 years younger than the 1989 Chapelot 1er Cru from Raveneau that we also opened, this 1er Cru is also brilliant, currently distinctly showing lemon and mineral/soil aromas and flavors, a touch of maturity but then the bracing acidity reminds me this definitely will evolve further, I was lucky to get a large slug of these 2014s, and they continue to impress, lingering finish, will cellar further!! This just might be an aged white wine I could even convince @Tom Casagrande of drinking at this age?!?!?! 🤔🤷😎 — 2 months ago

I have to admit I had a bunch of 14s from a range of producers that convinced me it was a classic old-school Chablis year. But they’re long gone!

Les Clos Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 2012

Stunning. Dauvissat perfection. 2012 Clos is perfect tonight, with more fruit definition than Preuses as expected from the site. It’s textural, chiseled and powerful with Chablisen oyster shell minerality layered in a tidal wave of spiced orchard fruit and white flowers. It’s incredibly silky on the palate showing killer volume and density with racy citrusy acids and a sea spray-like salinity to round it out. When Dauvissat is on it’s hard to beat. And this is still young. — 3 months ago
