Robert Parker Wine Advocate William Kelley - 21 Jul 22
Brimming with character and complexity, Dauvissat's 2020 Petit Chablis transcends its humble appellation. Offering up aromas of crisp green apple, citrus zest, oyster shell and mandarin orange, it's medium to full-bodied, taut and chiseled, with racy acids and a pungently saline finish.

Chablis

Chablis, the northernmost Burgundy region, is famed for its crisp, mineral-driven Chardonnay wines. Unlike rich, oaky Chardonnays, Chablis wines, influenced by the cool climate and limestone-rich soils, feature vibrant acidity and flavours of green apple, citrus, and flint. Ideal with seafood, especially oysters, Chablis wines come in four appellations: Petit Chablis, Chablis, Chablis Premier Cru, and Chablis Grand Cru. Esteemed producers like Domaine William Fèvre, François Raveneau, and Vincent Dauvissat are known for their classic, terroir-expressive wines.
