RATINGS

92The Wine Advocate

A real success this year is the 2019 Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons, a medium to full-bodied, satiny wine evocative of citrus zest, apple blossom, white peach and rock salt. Unusually chiseled and incisive, it concludes with a long, penetrating finish.

An elegant and quite citrusy nose is comprised by notes of white pepper, quinine, iodine and tidal pool. The impressively concentrated medium-bodied flavors also possess a beguiling texture white retaining plenty of punch on the super-saline and bone-dry finale that offers both excellent depth and persistence.
