Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos AOC Chablis Grand Cru
Lots of potential, it is well balanced with structure and depth. Youthful fresh floral and fruit aromas, green apples become more peachy, with honey and spices on the palate. It has layers of flavour with a persistent finish. Les Clos faces southwest directly opposite the town of Chablis.
Chablis Grand Cru Vaudesir AOC Chablis Grand Cru
I tasted both this 2018 and the 2019 for this selection – and found the 2018 to have the edge currently. On the palate, it is rich and concentrated. A little shy on the nose, it opens up to reveal honey, fresh oranges and pineapple flavours. A bitter citrus-pith finish gives presence and persistence finishing with tangerine notes. Vaudésir is like an amphitheatre in shape: vines sit on steep slopes in an east-west valley within the Grand Cru hill so that half the vines face south, the other southwest.
