Les Vaudevey Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay


The 2019 Chablis Les Vaudevey 1er Cru has a pretty nose of tinned white peaches mixed with vanilla pod, showing fine delineation and focus, though not complex. The citrus-fresh palate is vibrant with good acidity, showing subtle peach and pear notes toward the minerally finish. This has a bit of a skip in its step. (Neal Martin, Vinous, October 2021)

Stone, pear, white flowers. Big mouth feel yet high acidity. Spun gold straw.

Aug 11th, 2017Good classy style. Stony, chalky, white flowers, lillies, lemon peel, and some sweet fruit, white peach and sweeter Apple. Lovely palate, nervy, vibrant with a light texture, somewhat reminiscent of a village Puligny, but slightly lighter. Good length, and distinct mineral note.
