2002 Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons (Vieilles Vignes), Dauvissat
Appearance: pale straw-green colour.
Nose: very young nose at present showing some citrus fruit and mineral notes, but perhaps a little closed right now.
Palate: more fruit on the palate than on the nose, good highish acidity, balanced alcohol, very good length.
Conclusion: This wine has a considerable way to go and there’s some concentration there from the old vines that has yet to express itself fully. Drink from 2007-2012. Dauvissat is clearly a strong producer. Very good.
Rating: 18/20 [possibly higher with age]
