2013 Chablis Valmur

Tasted blind at the annual “Burgfest” tasting in Brouilland. The 2013 Chablis Grand Cru Valmur has a rich, lightly honeyed bouquet with citrus fruit, yellow flower, mango and dried pineapple scents. It opens nicely in the glass to reveal more nutty, almost resin-like aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with fine delineation, the acidity well judged, hazelnut and sea salt notes developing towards the finish that demonstrates fine weight and density. Enjoy this well-crafted Valmur over the next decade. Tasted May 2016.
