Petit Chablis 2017 Domaine Vincent Dauvissat

Avis professionnels

Robert Parker (90)

Readers who neglect Vincent Dauvissat's 2017 Petit Chablis in favor of his grander appellations will be doing themselves a disservice, as this is a brilliant, characterful wine with an established track record of evolving gracefully for the better part of two decades. Unfurling in the glass with scents of lemon oil, white flowers and crushed chalk, it's medium to full-bodied, ample and layered, with a bright spine of acidity and a precise finish. Dauvissat observed that, unusually, all his appellations attained the same maturity levels in 2017, so the Petit Chablis has the same alcohol level as his two grand cru bottlings.
