Note di degustazione
The 2023 Chablis Vaillons 1er Cru has just a little reduction on the nose, opening with lemon thyme and crushed stone aromas. The palate is well balanced with a crisp line of acidity. This is charming and harmonious, although it doesn't quite kick on like other cuvées on the finish. It will be earlier drinking.

One of the most flamboyant wines in the range, Raveneau’s 2023 Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons is showing superbly. Issuing from 0.4 hectares defined by stony soils and a natural amphitheater that shields the vines from winds, it’s ample and textural, soaring from the glass to reveal a bouquet of grapefruit zest, pear and crisp stone fruit mingling with notes of beeswax and white flowers. Concentrated, layered and intense, it's supported by a bright spine of acidity and concludes with a chalky finish. As is routinely the case with Vaillons, it will richly reward patience.
The 2023 Chablis Vaillons 1er Cru has a lovely bouquet with orange blossom and quince, a touch of flint in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with a fine bead of acidity. Zesty and lively, not with the amplitude of the 2022 but with pleasing strictness on the finish. Very fine.
