Note di degustazione
The 2023 Chablis Fôret 1er Cru has a more mineral-driven bouquet than the Vaillons. There's more complexity here, with flinty scents that emerge with time in the glass. The palate is beautifully balanced with a saline entry, hints of clementine and quince. It's a little spicier toward the finish with a hint of lemongrass on the aftertaste. The 2023 is lovely.

Sourced from two plots on the bottom of the slope, amounting to just 0.6 hectares in total, the 2023 Chablis 1er Cru Forêt, similar to Raveneau’s Vaillons, is protected from winds by a natural amphitheater. However, it has yielded a slightly tauter wine than Vaillons. Based on deeper soils than Montmains, it soars from the glass with scents of grapefruit zest, dried white flowers and pear. Open yet controlled in its expressiveness, it’s deep and textural, underpinned by racy acidity and concludes with a long, chalky finish.
The 2023 Chablis Fôret 1er Cru has an expressive nose of Clementine and touches of grapefruit commingling with flint and light loamy scents. The palate is very well balanced with a sapid entry, a citric line of acidity. Quite sharp and edgy towards the finish, as Chablis ought to be. One for those seeking classically styled Chablis.
