2023 Chablis Grand Cru Valmur, Jean-Claude et Romain Bessin-Tremblay

2023 Chablis Grand Cru Valmur, Jean-Claude et Romain Bessin-Tremblay

Bessin’s Valmur is arguably the best value grand cru in Burgundy. And in spite of its great value, the wine’s potential for ageing should not be underestimated. The 2023 is flinty, with a lacy texture. The nose is edgy, slightly reductive, and tells you it will need some time. But the promise on the palate is sure to deliver in the years to come. It’s a reserved grand cru, rather than a flamboyant one, but its still waters run deep.

Tasting notes

Pale colour, very oaky, a wealth of fruit behind, not too exotic, a well-balanced thread of kimmeridgian marine character behind and very good persistence. Embryonic, yet promising.
