Opened at Taillevent and singing immediately with lemon, clam, and seaweed, fresh and slightly tertiary at the same time. Captivating, delicious. Drinking perfectly now.

Smoke show on the nose. Rich, oily, but overall clean and pure. Fresh and intense, quite striking. Showing good development and weight. Complex and detailed but recall being more impressed with the combination of freshness and weight / power.

Domain Vincent Dauvissat 2016 Chablis (Chablis, France): Tasted blind. Deep yellow. Honey, camomile, and orange. Beautiful roundness, flavors of citrus and soil. Acidity was average which caused me to guess a riper vintage such as 2005 or 1995. Nobody got the vineyard, and we were all surprised that it was an '04. I don't think I've ever had a Sechet this old, and it was remarkable to see how a wine so lean in its youth can gain so much flesh.

This took time to open up and needed lots of air to really show anything beyond a tight and youthful classic Chablis. Was better the following day and thoroughly enjoyable but really needs another 5 years at least. Always good stuff.

Classic Chablis loaded with crisp citrus and saline. An expressive bottle, and always a treat.
