A little too young but couldn’t pass up a Vaillons when on the menu, especially with oysters. — 19 days ago

Drinking pretty well for such a young Chablis.

Mouthfeel is nicely round & creamy. Ripe, Meyer Lemon, green apple, pineapple, lime pulp with some skin, topical melons, guava, chalky power, saline, sea fossils, limestone, touch of caramel, hint of white spice on the long set, yellow & white spring flowers, cool, round acidity, nicely balanced and well polished finish that last nearly two-minutes landing squarely on white spice.

A conversation was shared with me from Ralph at K&L who has been there 40 plus years that he had with their Burgundy buyer who just returned from his market trip to Burgundy. Ralph asked him what vintage he would compare the 2022 Burgundy vintage to. His reply was, the only vintage I could compare 2022 to is 1959! That’s a huge statement. — 2 months ago

Wow. An amazing wine

Nose: so sexy. The sexiest Chablis I’ve ever smelled. Just blasts the nose.

Palate: shockingly beautiful acidity. There’s fruit but it’s all about the sweet minerals and acidity. So bright. Wow.

Looking at this in the bottle makes you excited. Glowing blush cider electric juice. Apricots, cinnamon, pear, green apple, and soft flowery nose. Bright, balanced, tart on the sip with lingering black tea notes. Just fun to drink. Look at. Look at while drinking. Slam dunk. — a month ago

This vintage is drinking so well right now while you wait for 12 and 14. After a multi hour decant Dauvissat’s 2013 Clos radiates with power and intensity showing tremendous volume, textural weight and layers of oyster shell minerality, racy lemony acids and a massively long, vibrant, saline finish. Still many years to go on this one. — 2 months ago
