Note di degustazione
The 2003 Chablis Les Preuses Grand Cru came from a bottle that had been opened four days earlier, not that it appeared to be compromised one jot. It blossoms without encouragement, mirabelle, crushed rock, subtle pear and yuzu aromas. Its sheer concentration on the palate is striking, and according to my predecessor, Dauvissat added some dried berries into the vat at the time. It tells. But the finish has no dryness, brushing off that notorious year’s warmth. Drinking beautifully now and seemingly bullet-proof against oxidation once the bottle is opened!

Pale yellow-gold. Reticent but vibrant aromas of pineapple, lemon, mirabelle, white flowers and stone. Silky on entry, then minerally, brisk and firm in the middle, with a penetrating quality shown by very few examples from this vintage.Conveys an impression of energy.Finishes with explosive length, uncompromising dryness and stony perfume. Dauvissat told me he threw out the grilled grapes but included a lot of tiny dried grapes for their sheer concentration and the acidity they added.
Crushed stone, raw pineapple and licorice on the bracing nose. A large-scaled, horizontal wine that covers the palate with liquid stone. Extremely dry and backward. With its powerful minerality, this is as chewy as a solid on the back half, finishing with a whiplash of flavor. Can there be a better Preuses than Dauvissat's version?
