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.

The 2023 Chablis Valmur Grand Cru has a touch more expression than the Vaudésir. Orchard fruit, a light smoky scent, and a hint of petrichor develop in the glass. The palate is well balanced on the entry and quite powerful. Yet, I find the finish just missing some of the detail and mineralité of its peers and indeed, some of Droin`s Premier Crus. - Neil Martin
