2023 Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons, Jean-Paul & Benoît Droin

2023 Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons, Jean-Paul & Benoît Droin

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.
