Drouhin Vaudon Chablis Premier Cru Vaillons 2015

Chablis, Burgundy, FranceDrouhin has been around since the 1880s, with the current generation's great grandfather starting the business as a negociant. In the early 20th century the family started as winemakers, purchasing and planting their first vineyards in the early 1960s. From the left bank's south facing slopes of 1er cru Vaillons, this well straddles the line of green apple, lemon pith nimbleness and shimmer, with a complete core of chalk, quince and pear kissed centre. This streams along with a riff of sea salts, pear skin to texture. This wine was fermented and aged in stainless, on lees until racked and bottled in summer 2016.Tasted: 01 November 2018Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
