The 2022 Chablis Côte de Léchet 1er Cru has a backward, recalcitrant bouquet with hints of petrichor and Granny Smiths. The palate is well-balanced with a fine bead of acidity, harmonious and just a touch of bitter lemon lends tension towards the finish, which is quite graceful. It is well-made and delicious, though perhaps not long-term. Tasted blind at the BIVB tasting in Chablis. (Neal Martin, Vinous, August 2024)

Classic Lechet nose, Wow that mineral florality is something. Super expressive and pure. Lime blossom and zest. Meyer lemon, yellow and white flowers. Rich and sappy with lovely freshness and energy. Good mineral persistence and a salty lanolin finish. Sappy and pure. Nose is gorgeous and pure. Long. Very long. Elegant and finesse driven and wide open with wonderful structure and density and such length.

Everybody loves Sebastien Dampt. You just can’t own enough of his wines. Nose: a beautiful perfume. Ocean air. Lemon flower. Palate: so clean. Mountain stream infused with elegant lemon. Sweet lemon One of the more restrained Lechets. Classic. Very well made. Fass selections

Nice classic Chablis. If I have to quibble, I’d say it’s a bit less complex and a bit less dense and mouth filling than you’d expect for a premier cru. But still quite enjoyable.
