Tasting Notes

Once again there is a subtle but not invisible application of wood setting off the more elegant aromas of green fruit, citrus, floral, spice and quinine. The super-intense, delineated and vibrant middle weight plus flavors possess both good richness but also the hallmark refinement of a fine Preuses, all wrapped in a more complex and sneaky long finish. Don't miss!

Score: 92 - 94

The 2015 Chablis Grand Cru les Preuses comes from 2.5 hectares of vine, west and southwest facing. The nose needs some encouragement from the glass, but ultimately reveals attractive green apple, granite and orange blossom aromas all neatly defined. The palate is well balanced with quite a rounded and voluptuous opening, the tropical tones nicely integrated with the citrus fruit; there is just a little more spice and terroir expression required on the finish, but there is good persistence here.

Score: 91 - 93

Bright, light yellow. Discreet aromas of white peach, flowers and spices. At once elegant and penetrating; not a fleshy grand cru but very youthful and tightly wound in the early going, with a refined texture to its peach, white pepper and spice flavors. Much less expressive today than the Valmur, even a bit dry on the back end, this classy, understated wine will need time in bottle to express itself.

Score: 92 - 94
