Note di degustazione
The 2017 Chablis Les Lys 1er Cru is a dense, potent wine that will appeal most to readers who enjoy concentrated whites. Although not exactly subtle, the 2017 possesses superb depth and creaminess. Dried herbs, chamomile, crushed flowers and dried pear notes add character. There is no shortage of intensity, that much is clear. In this tasting, the 2017 comes across as a bit bombastic.

Fresh spiced biscuits combine with lemon and grapefruit in a fresh mode. The palate has a very smooth and succulent feel with intensely delicious and fresh, lemon-laced peaches. Drink now.
Creamy, rich and fleshy on the palate with a fine vein of acid running through the palate and better persistence than their Vaillons bottling. Good, standard Chablis. (RH)
From one-hectare on the top of the slope, the 2017 Chablis Les Lys 1er Cru has an attractive orange blossom and beeswax scented bouquet that opens nicely in the glass. The palate is quite concentrated due to the relatively lower yield, touches of orange peel and pear with impressive weight on the finish. This lesser-known Premier Cru is well worth seeking out.
