The 2017 Chablis Valmur Grand Cru has an attractive, well-defined bouquet featuring subtle undergrowth notes, flint and shucked oyster shells, although it certainly needs some time. The palate is very smooth and harmonious, delivering beautifully judged acidity, hints of orange pith and white peach and fine tension through to the finish. Excellent. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting in Savigny-lès-Beaune. (Neal Martin, Vinous, August 2021)

35 year old vines, barrel fermented, rich, lemon, weighty, Meyer lemon, oysters, socca, maybe a few more years on the upside...maybe? Intense fruit

Apple, hay, lime leaf, and a hint of oxidation. Drinking beautifully right now. #BBWF14
