Tasting notes
The 2023 Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru has a neutral, stony nose that is outperformed by the Valmur this year. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity. Fresh clementines intermix with gooseberry and red apple notes. It is quite peppery and admirably persistent toward the finish. Give this a couple of years in bottle.

Certified organic. Cask sample. Much more composed and less showy than the Vaillons Cuvée Guy Moreau. Tastes so elemental. All chalk and cryptocrystalline tension, zimming with lime, white-stone dust clouds of minerality. Like a harp. Something quite aerial about this; silvery, fine. But also fiercely focused. Very, very exciting. (TC)
The 2023 Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru matured 60% in tank and 40% in barrel. It has the most completeness on the nose with mineral-charged yellow fruit, hints of vanilla and almond. The palate is ripe with tropical notes of passion fruit and mango on the entry. Slightly lower acidity than the 2022. Barely honeyed towards the finish, this will be an early-drinking Les Clos.
