Note di degustazione
The 2018 Chablis Vaudésir Grand Cru has a lovely, very pure bouquet. Even if there is less in the way of mineralité , this is so pretty and seductive, with wild peach, hints of honeysuckle and jasmine. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, fresh and vibrant, taut and saline with a prolonged finish. It will need time to soak up the wood. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2018 white tasting.

The 2018 Chablis Vaudésir Grand Cru is cut from a similar cloth to the Valmur, though I find that it does not possess the same tension or race. The bouquet offers satisfying intensity, featuring honeysuckle, passion fruit and touches of lemon, though I miss the mineralité and terroir expression that I find in other vintages. The palate is powerful and delivers plenty of finely tuned tropical fruit, though again, the essence of "Chablis-ness," its DNA, is partly erased by vintage expression. A thoroughly enjoyable Chablis, though not a memorable one.
The 2018 Chablis Vaudésir Grand Cru is one of the most exotic, flamboyant wines in the range. Marzipan, candied lemon confit, passionfruit and honeyed notes add to an impression of deep, exotic beauty. The 2018 isn't a shy wine, nor it is exactly subtle, but it is flat-out delicious and arresting in its beauty. Drink it with richer foods.
