Chablis is a gem, known to many but ignored by many more. Maybe the sea of mass market Chablis – and indeed misrepresentations of Chablis over the years – has hidden from view the joy which this region can bring, in authentic hands. Though we shall discuss Chablis as a whole, from Petit Chablis to Grand Cru, the tasting will feature 6** 1er cru wines from exciting producers, both classic names and some unconventional newcomers. What really counts? Soil, the exposure of the slope, or how you make the wine?
Wines in order:
- 2015 Chablis, 1er Cru ” Vaucoupin” Château de Béru
- 2015 Chablis, 1er Cru, Vaillons, Dauvissat Camus
- 2017 Chablis 1er Cru, Montmains, Moreau Naudet
- 2016 Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre, Louis Michel
- 2015 Domaine Francois Raveneau Butteaux
- 2015 Chablis 1er Cru Vaulorent, William Fèvre
This initiative was set up by the wonderful 67 Pall Mall Club, as part of an ongoing series.
