Drouhin Vaudon Chablis Les Clos

Drouhin Vaudon Chablis Les Clos

Vintage: 2020
Description: John Gilman 95 Points - "Vronique Drouhin noted that the family tried something different with their 2020 Les Clos, as half of this wine was barrel-fermented in old casks and the other half in cement egg this year. The resulting wine is fascinating, as the portion fermented and raised in egg has given the blend a different textural character that I find very attractive. The bouquet is still classic Les Clos, wafting from the glass in a mix of apple, pear, oyster shell, limestone minerality, beeswax and a floral topnote redolent of honeysuckle. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and rock solid at the core, with a classic girdle of acidity, lovely focus and grip and an extremely long, snappy and youthful finish. It almost seems as there is a more tactile sensation to the backend minerality here from the partial elevage in cement eggs. A superb wine. (Drink between 2026 - 2055)."
