Note di degustazione
I could not resist the 2016 Chablis La Forest 1er Cru from Vincent Dauvissat. I can’t think of too many things I would rather eat and drink than this food and this wine. With a little age, the 2016 La Forest is exquisite. Light on its feet and yet wonderfully layered, it is sublime today. Light citrus, floral, sage and mineral inflections dance on the palate. It should continue to drink well for another decade or more.

The 2016 Chablis 1er Cru La Forest is superb, wafting from the glass with aromas of Meyer lemon, iodine and wet stones. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, deep and pure, with satiny textural gloss, excellent concentration and a beautifully delineated finish. I suspect this will be a comparatively precocious rendition of the Dauvissat Forest, but it's a beautiful wine.
Pale, bright yellow. Pungent aromas of grapefruit pith, lemon zest and wild herbs; really amazing lift here for a vintage with moderate acidity. Seamless and fine-grained, already offering compelling inner-mouth perfume to its flavors of citrus fruits, wild herbs, acacia flower, jasmine and minerals. The wonderfully aromatic, slowly rising finish boasts outstanding floral lift. A great premier cru in the making. Hail and mildew reduced the crop level here to just 25 hectoliters per hectare.
