Tasting notes
The 2022 Chablis Vieilles Vignes comes from 65-year-old vines and is aged 40% in barrel, the rest in stainless steel. It has an open, airy bouquet with citrus peel and Granny Smith apples, less rich than the regular Chablis Village. The palate is fresh and saline on the entry, lightly spiced with good weight and a cohesive, bright finish that delivers the sapidity to beckon another sip. Top-notch Chablis! Tasted blind at the BIVB tasting in Chablis.

Roland Laventureux’s 2022 Chablis Vieilles Vignes is a revelation. A wine of depth and character, the Vieilles Vignes is magnificent. Time brings out striking citrus, white pepper, slate and chalk notes. This is my first wine from Laventureux, a grower I am eager to learn more about. What a wine.
