“A fine Chablis which manages to be both powerful and concentrated, yet still retains a lovely lift. Plenty of acidity and distinctive mineral flavours on the palate, along with some spiced, confit lemon character to finish. Will age well. Drinking Window 2022 - 2026.”

“Dauvissat’s 2020 Chablis bursts with aromas of crisp green apple, white flowers, wet stones, oyster shell and struck the match. Medium to full-bodied, taut, and racy, it’s deep and incisive, with impeccable Chablisien credentials and a long, intensely mineral finish. As usual, it’s the reference point for the appellation.”

“A more restrained but equally fresh nose features notes of green fruit, oyster shell and lemon-lime wisps along with a very subtle dollop of wood. There is excellent intensity to the sleek, detailed and delicious medium weight flavors that terminate in a clean, dry and sneaky long finish. Fine quality here for its level.”

“The Chablis was picked over various dates, depending on the plot. Pale color, a restricted nose with a slight oiliness, early days yet, after which the 2020 Chablis is perfectly poised on the palate with a striking minerality, much more my style than 2019. Builds beautifully to the back of the palate.”

About The Winery
Domaine Vincent Dauvissat is arguably the finest Domaine in Chablis. Established in the 1970s by Robert Dauvissat, the Domaine has passed down from father to son for three generations. Robert's son René is to thank for establishing the reputation of the Domaine. Vincent began working with his father, René, in the 1970s and today runs the Domaine. A loyal following among France's most esteemed restaurateurs sharply limits the availability of Dauvissat wines for export. Despite limited quantities, the wines have attracted the praise and attention of critics worldwide.
