The 2023 Chablis Village was quite reticent on the nose when tasted from barrel, in the same vein as the Petit Chablis, though it begins to open after a few swirls of the glass. The palate is very lemony, with hints of orange pith, a fine umami sensation with more weight on the finish than the Petit Chablis. Give this two or three years in bottle.
There is even more Chablis typicity present on the ripe and fresh aromas of Granny Smith, lemon rind and soft floral nuances. There is again good volume and richness to the attractively vibrant medium weight flavors that conclude in a highly refreshing finale. This would benefit from developing better depth so a few years of keeping should prove beneficial.
The 2023 Chablis, with the majority of its fruit sourced from the vineyards near Vincent Dauvissat’s La Forest, is a notable success and one of the top performers of the appellation. Soaring from the glass with scents of citrus oil, pear and dried flowers, it’s medium to full-bodied and textural, with lively acidity and a mineral finish. If only all Chablis would taste like this!
