Jean et Sebastien Dauvissat Chablis les Preuses Grand Cru 2017 (750ML)

91-93 BH / 91-93 VM / 90-92 WA

Note: from vines planted in 1956 and 1965
Tasting note: The wood is a bit more obvious though not intrusive on the green fruit, white flower and iodine-scented aromas. The exceptionally rich full-bodied flavors also possess fine density thanks to the abundant level of dry extract that buffers the moderately firm acid spine on the very dry finale. Sweet Spot – Allen Meadows - Burghound

The 2017 Chablis Les Preuses Grand Cru is a dense, powerful wine. Time in the glass brings out a good deal of Preuses mineral and floral character. As always, the Preuses spends a year in oak and a year in tank. The first year imparts a level of power and richness that, in my view, masks some of the subtleties of Preuses . There is plenty of depth and nuance here, but I feel there could maybe have been even more. -Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media

The 2017 Chablis Grand Cru Les Preuses exhibits aromas of Meyer lemon and white flowers, framed by creamy new oak. On the palate, it's full-bodied, rich and textural, with more weight than the other wines in the cellar, but with more cut, too. - William Kelley, Wine Advocate
