This is a blend of five terroirs across the steep Vaillons premier cru (out of a possible total of eight). Blending gives Benoît the chance to introduce freshness, with higher acid fruit running through the riper parcels. This is gorgeously floral, as great Vaillons tends to be in its youth. It’s an elegant wine with classical balance. As usual 25% was fermented and aged in old oak, and though it’s hugely appealing right from the get-go, this should age beautifully as well.

25% wood. The first grapes to be picked. Good bright colour with a light green tint. Confit de citron, some white fruited flesh, no great acidity, but nuanced and pleasing. Softer finish than a classic Vaillons but very classy.
The 2023 Chablis Vaillons 1er Cru has a pretty nose, more floral with dandelion scents infusing the lemon and orange pith aromas–quintessential Vaillons really. The palate is slightly lower in acidity than the 2022–fine depth and with a slightly powdery texture on the finish. Drink over the next 4-5 years.
