Chablis Grand Cru Les Blanchot

While this wine initially exhibits reduction, it quickly unveils layers of complexity. Currently restrained yet promising, the concentrated nose reveals citrus, Bosc pear, acacia, and stone. The palate is round and generous, showcasing ample stone, white mushroom, and salinity. Piercing acidity awakens the palate, delivering a wealth of sensations. It should benefit from additional cellaring through 2028+ to reveal its full depth.

This is a plot selection of older vines across the Grand Cru of Blanchots. Powerful, potent and savoury, with flint, cracked wheat, toasted popcorn, medicinal lemon, hawthorn, herbal spice, with a swing of honeysuckle and a desiccated pear skin finish. The palate is creamy and broad, but comfortably large boned. Far too young to drink now, this would be best enjoyed after 5+ years in the cellar.
