Note di degustazione
The 2023 Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru has a competent nose with decent fruit intensity, though it is not the most complex Les Clos that I encountered during my tastings. The palate is much better, with a peachy opening and fine depth. This leans perhaps a little too far to the tropical side of the fruit spectrum on the finish. Then again, it does uphold tension and feels long. Give this a couple of years and keep your fingers crossed that the aromatics up their game. Tasted blind at the BIVB tasting in Chablis.

Certified organic. Fermented in barrel using their proprietary yeast made from their own vineyard. Full natural malo. The wine spends winter on full lees (70% in barrel, 30% in stainless steel) and then the two portions are blended in spring and the wine spends a few more months on fine lees in stainless steel with a bit of bâtonnage. Rounded, pretty, open, ripe nose with an underline of richness – just like the palate. Beautiful, fresh, ripe apricot fruit. Shining with fruit. The first note of chalky texture in these Malandes and more pithy bite and bitterness on this one. The finish is long, very long, informed by a racing central line of acidity and sinewy power of bitterness. But still, it’s the fruit which sings. Great stuff. (TC)
