Chablis Valmur Droin (6 x 75cl) 2023

The name Valmur translates to "ripe valley," and Droin`s 1.03 hectares of vines are located on a south-facing slope. The wine is juicy and smoky, featuring notes of ripe quince, lavender, and grilled nuts. Beneath the generous fruit lies a tangy freshness, complemented by hints of spicy oak and a grippy, crushed stone texture.

This is a wine with many layers that unfold gradually. It is currently quite austere and reserved, with a pronounced iodine and oyster shell finish. It will need time to open up but promises to age beautifully. Best enjoyed from 2027 to 2040.
