Note di degustazione
Pale yellow. Higher-pitched on the nose than the Preuses, offering strong oyster-shell minerality lifted by lavender and violet nuances. Densely packed, tactile and suave, displaying outstanding energy and inner-mouth citrussy lift. Comes across as less violent than the Preuses, and more perfumed on the palate. Finishes with oustanding length and a magically light touch.

While the Preuses is an obvious wine that literally jumps out of the barrel, the 2013 Chablis Les Clos is a far more intellectual wine. There are more questions than answers in a seductive Chablis full of allure. Seamless and silky in the glass, the Clos is all about texture. Hints of citrus, green pear, sage and mint open up, but the Clos hovers in a stratosphere of pure pleasure. In a word: magnificent.
Bright pale yellow. Pure, bright aromas of crushed stone and lemon are much tighter than those of the Preuses. At once pure and powerful, with a strong spine of citrussy acidity and stony minerality keeping the complex flavors of lemon, sweet gingery spices, vanilla and pepper under wraps today. Seems much less evolved and showy today than the Preuses. Finishes with a superb light touch and subtle palate-staining citrus persistence.
