Chablis Les Clos Vincent Dauvissat 2016

Vincent Dauvissat Chablis Les Clos 2016 is a full-bodied Chardonnay white wine produced from the Grand Cru climat of Les Clos in the Chablis appellation of Burgundy. Domaine Vincent Dauvissat produces some of the region’s most complex and age-worthy Chardonnays. Established in the 1970s by Robert Dauvissat, the domaine has been passed down from father to son for three generations. Vincent is now in charge of cellar and has helped to cement his family`s status as the pre-eminent name in Chablis winemaking. Chablis` largest Grand Cru, Les Clos boasts ideal south and south-westerly exposition, providing optimum sun exposure which in turn yields some of the region`s most full-bodied wines. "From bottle, the 2016 Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos is more immediately expressive than the Preuses, revealing aromas of honeyed lemons, preserved citrus and quince. On the palate, it`s fuller-bodied, deep and ample, even rich, with a layered core, succulent acids and almost chewy levels of extract, concluding with a long finish. It`s a very serious Les Clos that could well be the wine of the vintage." Wine Advocate, 2018
