Dauvissat Pere & Fils CHABLIS 1er Cru COTE de LECHET 2022 75 cl

Description

Chablis 1er Cru Côte de Léchet 2022: the meeting of an exceptional terroir with a great family of winegrowers in Chablis.

Domaine Dauvissat Père & Fils, one of Chablis' flagship estates, offers this 1er Cru Côte de Léchet 2022, a dry white wine of great purity, produced from an exceptional terroir marked by Kimmeridgian soils rich in marine fossils. This Chardonnay offers a subtle nose combining lime, lime blossom and a touch of flint, characteristic of the great vintages of Chablis. On the palate, it unfolds a complex aromatic palette: green apple, citrus fruits, fresh butter and a striking minerality, with a long, salty finish.

The Dauvissat estate, managed with passion and rigour for several generations, is renowned for its precise wines, which faithfully reflectthe identity of each climat. Côte de Léchet, located on the sunny slopes of the right bank of the Serein, benefits from optimal exposure and natural drainage, guaranteeing perfectly ripe and concentrated grapes. The 2022 vintage, marked by a hot and dry summer, has produced a wine that is both powerful and balanced, with lively acidity and remarkable mineral structure.

This Chablis Premier Cru is a versatile wine that pairs beautifully with seafood (oysters, scallops), grilled fish or mature goat's cheeses. It should be served at 10-12°C and can be kept for 5 to 10 years to reveal its full complexity.
