Note di degustazione
Not in bottle. Mid lemon and lime colour. The bouquet is more reticent than the 1ers crus. This has elegance on the palate though plus a surprising sucrosity, not always typical of Blanchot. Quite intense, white fruit more than flowers, fair length. Drink from 2026-2033.

Here too moderately generous wood is present on the ripe and layered aromas of pear confit, wet stone and the hallmark floral top notes. I very much like both the refined texture and intensity of the precise medium-bodied flavors that display focused power on the impressively long, balanced and dry finale. Fine potential here.

The 2022 Chablis Blanchot Grand Cru sees 25% aged in barrel and the remainder in stainless steel for nine months, plus five months where the entire blend is aged in stainless steel. The nose has a surprising steeliness that other Grand Crus found difficult to manifest: focused and mineral-driven. Not austere, but reserved. The palate is well-balanced with a fine bead of acidity, citrus-fresh with touches of pear and nectarine. Again, quite reserved and holding back on the finish. This represents a competent combination of classicism and the vintage's exotic tendency.
