CHABLIS GRAND CRU, VAUDÉSIR, AOC CHABLIS GRAND CRU, 2024
Pale lemon hue. Majestic, towering nose highlighting the enormous potential quality in this part of the world and proving the wisdom of those who planted vineyards here many centuries ago. Notes of honey, hay, lemon pith, pink grapefruit, wet stone, cinnamon, ginger, brioche, nectarine on the nose; this just about falls off the back of the palate, such is its length and unctuousness. Piercing acidity helps keep it in balance, and there is a wealth of fruit that will continue to develop in complexity. The finish is lingering, driven equally by stone and citrus fruit but supported by subtle oak. A wine to sip and savour for many years to come. 2028-2035–MP
CHABLIS GRAND CRU, BOUGROS, AOC CHABLIS GRAND CRU, 2024
Pale lemon hue. Sweet aniseed and honeysuckle aromas; bright yellow midsummer fruits (peach and nectarine). Considerable charm but retains the classicism of its origins. Almost opulent this year, a very generous Bougros with sandalwood and fenugreek spices underscoring the resource hidden within the bright, taut peach and nectarine fruits. It has enough stony drive to age, and the balance remains brisk and sustained. 2026-2033–AJ
