Tasting notes
The 2022 Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru comes from three parcels with different ages. It takes a few moments to coalesce but it develops nicely, a mixture of white and yellow fruit, crushed limestone and quince. Very harmonious on the finish with a dab of creaminess that lingers on the aftertaste. This is a lovely Les Clos that will drink earlier than its peers.

Quietly powerful, with subtle fruit flavors, a full body (for Chablis) and layers of fruit, minerals and toast that build on the palate and linger on the finish. Grown on a south-facing slope in clay-based but stony soil. 30% was barrel-fermented, showing an opulent, rich expression underpinned by a minerally, saline character. Drinkable now, but it will develop much more complexity with time. From organically grown grapes. Best from 2029.
