1981 Chablis

White Wine Of The Vintage
Leroux's Chassagne-Montrachet Les Embazées, summed up all that was best in 2008 for the whites - quite closed at first, but soon opening up and showing an all-enveloping feeling of fruit with a firm, very pure finish. Beautiful!

This wine starts out as a delightfully chubby Chassagne before tightening up on the palate. There’s a fine combination of weight and structure, along with an undeniable sensuality.

White Wine Of The Vintage
Caroline Lestimé's wines really stood out this year for their excellence across the board. The pick of her superb range of Premier Crus was the Caillerets: classy and complex with great concentration of minerally fruit and tremendous elegance. My tasting note finishes wow!.

Full, pure and powerful, this really shows its class from the outset, building several layers of flavour on the palate. It has a great feeling of luminosity and a fabulous finish. Brilliant! Magnums and Jeroboams are packed in wooden boxes.

Arnaud’s Clos des Ambres is fine, pure and fresh on the nose, developing a little butteriness after a few moments in line with a typical Meursault. Yields were especially low after spring hail, and this consequently has exceptional weight on the palate. Fabulous.
