93-95 Points Vinous
The 2022 Chablis Vaudésir Grand Cru comes from two parcels on the north-facing part of the climat, 60- and 70-year-old vines. It has a poised and focused bouquet with hints of white peach and praline infusing the minerally scents. Very composed and understated at first before gaining more intensity. The palate is well-balanced with tangy marmalade and quince, lovely depth and cohesion, equidistant between classicism and the generous, almost tropical nature of the 2022 vintage. Highly recommended.
Winemaker Notes:
A more restrained nose than the Montée de Tonnerre and very earthy and stony on the palate. Forest floor, pine, then the creaminess starts to come out. Bubble gum, Juicy Fruit and peach and nectarine flavors. Strong acids, very concentrated with lovely purity and class. Very caramelized and ripe fruit on the finish.
