Planted in 1946. Fine dense bright purple with good concentration. Significant weight of fruit, not one of the subtle latticework wines, fruit a little more concentrated at the front of the palate than the back, combines with its oak well. Note that this may have been dumbed down by just being bottled yesterday, and the score may be conservative. Tasted: March 2020.In Bond€2,870.00 -

The 2018 Chablis Vaillons 1er Cru, blended from six parcels, is pure, focused and taut, all while expressing the natural richness of the year. Lemon confit, white flowers, white pepper, mint and a kiss of French oak add striking aromatic top notes to match the wine's linear, energetic feel. The Vaillons has a surprising amount of freshness and lift, with bright saline notes that extend the finish. I suspect the opulence of the year will emerge more fully over time, but this is nevertheless a fine showing.In Bond€218.00 -

Pale lemon colour. Not so intense on the nose, but it certainly is on the palate. On the one hand with a very pure stony backbone, on the other the oak (30%) is quite present at the finish, arguably a fraction too much to suit the character of Vaillons. There is undeniable persistence, though, as the fruit keeps on coming back, and the oak will surely fade into the background. Drink from 2027-2032. Tasted Jun 2024.In Bond€495.00 -

(from vines planted in 1933 in Vaillons proper). A slightly cooler and smoky nose reflects notes of white pepper and a touch of the exotic while the wood treatment, while subtle, is a bit more noticeable. The old vines are in evidence as the mouthfeel of the medium-bodied flavors is markedly denser as the sappy extract coats the palate while buffering the moderately firm acid spine shaping the very dry, more complex and slightly long finale. Lovely.In Bond€312.00 -

Perfumed, pure aromas of white grapefruit, mint and minerals. The sweetest yet of these 2004s, with very intense flavors of lime and talc. This wine was moved from tank back into oak so that it could breathe a bit, notes Fabien. Still backward but not austere. Perhaps most expressive today on the juicy, very long finish.In Bond€147.00 -

From the delicate notes of wildflower honey to the lasting flavors of white peach, this wine feels compressed and hidden, yet somehow full and complete. Tasting it now, there's a sense of a magnificent presence behind a white wall of chalk. A wine for the future, this needs a decade to show itself.In Bond€184.00 -

(this was in a 50/50 blend of barrel and tank until being blended the week before my visit): Slightly hazy medium yellow. Totally different from the preceding wines, showing pronounced notes of lime, crushed rock and anise. A step up in intensity and pitch too, showing energetic, sappy flavors of white peach, salty stony minerality and white pepper. This very pure wine boasts refined tannins and terrific finishing energy.In Bond€130.00 -

The 2019 Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru has a clean, precise, more floral bouquet than the Valmur; white flower petal scents infuse the citrus fruit, along with a hint of egg whites.

Christian and Fabien own an enviable three hectares that extend two-thirds of the way up the slope. This 2020 is almost cozy with concentrated extract at the core.
