Night one was thin, a little disappointing and out of whack. Night two came back into its stride. Plenty of oxidized, slightly aldehydic character brinings umami and complexity to this salty Chablis. Fruit is soft, open, charming in a way. A delicious turn around.

The 2016 Vaillons Chablis is a simply brilliant showing from Dauvissat, who has a reputation for producing some of the finest Chablis in the region and there is no exception in this difficult vintage. As this gorgeous wine slowly unwinds in the glass it releases pretty aromas of orchard and citrus fruits, followed by orange zest, honey blossoms and pulverized stones. It goes on to impress as it displays wonderful overall purity and focus through a beautifully textured palate and remarkably precise finish. Overall this is a marvelous wine that is showing wonderful energy and appeal in its youth, but should also evolve beautifully for years to come.

Mineral notes chalky. Paired with several seafood dishes. Low acidity. Delicious
