Note di degustazione
Finally, the 2011 Chablis Les Preuses Grand Cru from Vincent Dauvissat. It’s a cool customer on the nose, distant and enigmatic, gradually revealing sea spray and crustacean scents, plus a touch of petrichor. The palate is wonderfully poised and harmonious, and more malic than the older vintages at this Chablis dinner, revealing hints of popcorn and sea salt on the engaging finish. This clearly needs another couple of years in bottle.

Super and fresh and lively and tight. Light and transparent. But painfully young. Tense and chalky. (JR)
Surprisingly, the 2011 Chablis Grand Cru Les Preuses is somewhat more supple and open-knit than the corresponding La Forest, offering up pretty aromas of orange blossom, citrus zest, oystershell, iodine and pastry cream. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, elegantly glossy and delicate, with a tangy, saline profile and a detailed finish. This is a precocious Preuses that's already approachable.
Dauvissat's 2011 Chablis Preuses is a big step up from the 1er Crus. Preuses signatures are all over this utterly impeccable, gracious Chablis. Layers of cool, saline-infused mineral nuance give the 2011 much of its freshness and verve. Sweet floral notes meld into pears and white stone fruits in an impeccable wine that will offer years of rewarding drinking.
