🏰 The 2024 Vincent Dauvissat Chablis Le Forest 1er Cru is already being hailed as a potential 【all-time great vintage, with critics urging 'if you can find it, buy it' due to incredibly low yields】. Vincent Dauvissat himself describes 2024 as an "old school" vintage, reminiscent of the 1960s and 1970s. This Chablis is concentrated, bracing, and emphatically mineral, showcasing a strikingly rich, broad-shouldered palate with imposing size, weight, and power, alongside a borderline aggressive minerality on the hugely long, balanced, and built-to-age finale. Expect aromas of mineral reduction, petrol, shellfish, iodine, pink grapefruit, lemon, pear, anise, chalky soil tones, citrus peel, white lilies, and vanillin oak. This wine is still very young and is recommended for drinking from 2030 onwards.
🍴 Given its intense minerality and acidity, this Chablis will be exceptional with fresh shellfish like oysters, crab, and lobster. It also pairs beautifully with delicate white fish, sushi, or goat cheese. For a local touch, consider steamed fish with ginger and spring onion, or a light seafood congee.
🥂 An essential acquisition for serious Chablis collectors and those looking to invest in a wine with immense aging potential. Perfect for cellaring to enjoy at future milestones, or for a tasting focused on showcasing the pinnacle of Chablis terroir. This is a pre-arrival wine, so securing it now is key.
