Proudly presenting the exquisite Albert Bichot Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons 2019, a top-tier embodiment of French winemaking mastery showcasing the vintage's depth and density. This prestigious wine is meticulously vinified in stainless steel to protect its natural purity, typical of Chablis's limestone-rich kimmeridgian soils. Made in the heart of Burgundy by the esteemed Maison Albert Bichot, the 2019 Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons is reflective of six generations' vineyard knowledge, finesse, and genuine passion. This distinguished white wine is beautifully pale gold in colour. Its nose resonates with aromas of ripe fruit and citrus zest, brilliantly melded with hints of minerality. A complex, enlightening palate unfurls vibrant citrus and white-fleshed fruit flavours finely balanced with a long-lasting brisk finish. Undeniably, such authenticity and coherence make the Albert Bichot Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons 2019 not just an elegant wine, but a testament to Chablis's remarkable terroir.

The 2021 Chablis Vaucoupin 1er Cru has a primal, grapefruit and lemon thyme scented nose that feels a bit strict. The palate is well balanced with a sapid entry, though it needs more grip and substance on the finish. Fine, but early-drinking. Tasted blind at the BIVB tasting in Chablis.Inc. TAX€265.72 -
Vinous (92-94)
The 2018 Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru is very airy, weightless and lifted. The 35% new oak is not especially evident. The 2018 shows real finesse and aromatic intrigue. Citrus, white flowers, chalk, white orchard fruit, white pepper and mint come together in a very pretty and gracious wine with a long, persistent finish.Inc. TAX€581.32 -

Fullish yellow. The complex nose shows the power of the vintage, a few drier tannins behind, fair acidity. I think the Clos character is there, but it is reticent today. The palate does deliver detail and layers of fruit though. The finish does also suggest the necessary class. Really good length here.Inc. TAX€509.58 -

Very energetic, concentrated and powerful flavors of lime and peaches. A wealth of mouthwatering acidity. Superb depth, purity and a long, stony mineral core. Holds long. Try from 2020Inc. TAX€887.39 -

Moutonne is one of Chablis' finest expressions and the 2019 will be another in a long list of memorable vintages. Although not the final bottling, it is clear that there is great power here, combined with finesse and a lightness on its feet. Savoury, umami, notes on the finish. Wood is a little evident now but will integrate beautifully once in bottle for 6-12 months. A lovely example, both powerful and restrained.Inc. TAX€995.58
