Note di degustazione
Bursting from the glass with aromas of vine blossom, orange zest, crisp white peach and honeycomb, the 2020 Chablis Grand Cru Vaudésir is medium to full-bodied, satiny and enveloping, with a seamless, elegantly fleshy profile and lively balancing acids. As is often the case, it's one of the more demonstrative grand cru bottlings in the range, yet its track record for longevity is impressive.

(from two separate parcels of vines, the larger of which is in the heart of the “amphitheater” from which the finest examples of Vaudésir originate). A discreet dollop of wood sets off the ever-so-mildly exotic aromas of white and yellow peach, passion fruit and subtle mineral reduction wisps. There isn’t the same weight and density though there is much better refinement to the lightly stony, focused and sneaky long finish. This is a classic Vaudésir that should also reward a decade or so of cellaring. (92-95)/2030+
The 2020 Chablis Vaudésir Grand Cru, cropped at 35hl/ha, feels a bit simple on the nose following on from the impressive Bougros and never really gets going. The palate is well balanced, quite leesy and powerful, and smooth in texture, but it needs to muster more complexity on the finish. Fine, but outclassed by its fellow Grand Crus in this vintage.
