Vincent Dauvissat (René & Vincent) Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre

Surprisingly open, pop and poured. Slight oxidative funk but only adds charm, strong yet elegant. Yellow fruits, subtle yeasty reduction that cuts through the fruit alongside a keen line of acidity. More backward on the palate at first but didn’t took long to integrate. The duality of reduction and oxidation brings plenty of power and a textural, long finish. Simply great.

At Osteria Le Logge. Quite forward for a young Chablis with seashell, citrus, stone fruit and white flowers. Good ripeness to balance out the Chablis minerality. 91-92

At Osteria le Logge. Holy. Fucking. Shit. The most complete and perfect Chablis I’ve had since ??? Oceanic and oyster shell-y with toasted hazelnuts and a bracing powdered citrus. That Chablis flavor you only get in Dauvissat and Raveneau (and a bit in Tribut). Fantastic but not enamel gripping acidity. Finish goes on. Of course it’s young but how can I say no to this on a wine list for only 125EU.
