Domaine du Vieux Chateau Vaillon Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2009

On the tail end of its prime window, but still hitting. Like a mealy yellow apple, not quite browned. Has cider notes but plenty of acid in the mouth for vibrancy. Laser lemon cleaner with toasted oak becomes candied kumquat and sweet clementine.

Theres a lot of beautiful weight and texture and raw power that comes out to play as you let it warm.

Good question @Ron R. Don’t think I paid an insane amount but forget how I weaseled it. I’d give it 9.2-9.3 with more air and letting it come up to room temp but in this heat I prefer things cooler.

I for sure did not pay $850 that Delectable is showing for the latest. I know it was under $125.

I think their Banquet app/pricing mechanism is jacked.

Côte de Léchet Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2021

Delicious #chablispremiercru - likely built for the long haul but drinks splendidly young as well. Taut tartness up front on the palate, lemon layered on top of wet stone. Yum! — 2 months ago

9.3

Hard not to go 94 here but with some time in cellar.

All the 22’s I’ve had to this point, stunning!

This is another amazing wine on entry. Elegant and all you expect and more at the level. Granny Smith apple, lime flesh w/ pith & zest, pineapple juice, white peach, tropical green melon, paraffin, waxy, excellent chalky powder, white spice, limestone powder, field of spring white flowers framed in jasmine, perfect acidity and a beautiful, well made & balanced finish that lasts nearly two-minutes and lands on chalk & spice.

@Byron Hewett Hello Byron. I assume you meant 2021. Did you find this wine reflected the lighter vintage? Many are saying back to “traditional Burgundy “ after the warmer vintages from 2015.

I did mean 2021. My experience with’21 is that it isn’t necessarily lighter. The frost, hail and other pressures dramatically reduced the crop, but most of the wines made are still quite good. Better care in the vineyard, and careful selection of grapes made a huge difference. This wine was no shrinking violet!
