Domaine Vincent Dauvissat enjoys an unparalleled location in the Chablis region, with some of the most sought-after parcels. It consists of 12.7 hectares, with vineyard holdings in ‘Le Clos’ and ‘Les Preuses’, ‘Montée de Tonnerre’, ‘Vaillons’, ‘Forest’ and ‘Séchet’, as well as a village Chablis and Petit Chablis. The 2018 Chablis Les Preuses Grand Cru displays perfectly ripe yellow fruits, lemon curd, honey, beeswax and sweet spices. On the palate, the wine has a rich and oily texture, but also excellent balance and precision, bright acidity and distinctive limestone minerality.
95 Robert Parker
The 2018 Chablis Grand Cru Les Preuses has turned out brilliantly, delivering notes of orange oil, crisp orchard fruit, iodine, white flowers and oyster shell, followed by a full-bodied, ample and enveloping palate that`s racy and saline, concluding with a long, electric finish. This is rather open for a young Dauvissat Preuses; and while it should, all things being equal, enjoy a long life, it will be less of a crime than usual to open a bottle or two young.
94 Vinous
The 2018 Chablis Les Preuses Grand Cru has an outstanding nose for the vintage, very well defined with light nutty and smoky aromas. The palate is quite saline on the entry, displaying fine tension. Not as powerful as the 2019 but with an uncharacteristic linearity for the vintage, and more classic in style than many. Neal Martin1st September 2020
