| Community Tasting Notes (average 91.8 pts. and median of 92 pts. in 32 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by MJReb on 3/15/2024 & rated 92 points: White orchard fruit (mainly apple, some pear), iodine, seashells, some botrytis. Still pretty young. (140 views) | | | Tasted by decaturwinedude on 2/15/2024: Hate to report that this bottle was advanced. Not undrinkable, but too far into oxidation than it should be at this point in its evolution. (379 views) | | | Tasted by sirpat00 on 1/13/2024 & rated 94 points: Tasted blind. Distinctly buttery profile with tropical and floral high notes of banana and baked pear. Mineral notes of smoke, saline notes and rosehip. Later revealing matchstick and sulfur-like notes. The buttery dimension is reflected on the palate both in aromas and texture. But surprisingly this lacks somehow the acidity for ideal balance. The nose is indeed fantastic and blind this reminded me of a hot vintage Meursault. (320 views) | | | Tasted by Cote d'Or on 8/25/2023: Tasted over 2 hrs
-translucent med gold
-lemon white floral lanolin
-med acidity, med weight with soft mouthfeel yet a certain richness with highly concentrated sappy intense lemon pith saline
-this is excellent, particularly in the context of the vintage, just starting to show some maturity but no oxidation (385 views) | | | Tasted by Collector1855 on 3/31/2023 & rated 93 points: During a 2013 vintage tasting. The conclusion was that 1er Crus are in an early drinking window, while the Grand Crus need a good 5 more years. The vintage has elevated acidity but the tannins were more polished than in 2014 which we had a few weeks back. Also the wines have compact fruit. All this makes them well suited for further cellaring. TN: Interesting nose, white flowers, citrus, but also some ripe botritis elements which I liked less. All in all a very good showing, very popular at the table tonight. 92-94 (1169 views) | | | Tasted by jhw425 on 3/4/2023 & rated 94 points: This was brilliant. Better than a 2013 Fevre Frank alongside Great structure and a fruit profile that was almost blue. Drink now because why not! (484 views) | | | Tasted by AJ72 on 3/6/2022 & rated 94 points: Brilliant again. Followed a very underwhelming Chablis from Thierry Lafay 1er cru with this. Really highlights the void between the best and the not so good that Chablis has to offer. Wonderful complexity, very mineral driven theme just a delight to drink from the first sip to the last. Wouldn't hold as I think it's just right now. (1467 views) | | | Tasted by MJReb on 2/25/2022 & rated 92 points: Iodine, sea stuff and pear, a ripe wine, fully accessible. (1337 views) | | | Tasted by jhw425 on 12/5/2021 & rated 91 points: This was good with 2 hours of air but starting to look a little darker in color. Probably recommend drinking up (1311 views) | | | Tasted by MJReb on 7/16/2021 & rated 92 points: In a nice spot: pear mixed with iodine notes, hay and floral stuff, nice salinity, middle concentration with good length, well accessible right now, no need for extended cellaring, but can go on for years. (1466 views) | | | Tasted by dbkitc on 12/4/2020 & rated 92 points: Golden color. Nose is full of mirabelle and sea air. A bit broad/loose for a wine from Dauvissat but there is a wonderful underlying minerality. The palate follows the nose and seems mature with a zippy apple finish. This is my first bottle so I do not know it it is aging prematurely or is representative. What I do know is that this bottle fully ready to go and more mature than many older bottles I have had. Will try another bottle soon. It’s excellent whatever its condition. (92) (1618 views) | | | Tasted by danstrings on 10/3/2020 & rated 94 points: Gorgeous showing - super light gold color - no signs of age there. On the nose - loads of crushed mineral / emerald green herbal notes infused with an ethereally light white truffle and white flowers.. Rich on the palate but light on its feet, a study in balance. (1355 views) | | | Tasted by thierrynz on 8/2/2020: Served at 12 degrees celsius. Brilliant colour: lightest touch of hay and green hue. Immediately expressive with white and yellow florals (acacia and lemon-tree blossom), citric lift and precision and with a charming sweetness which continues on palate. Well-balanced in the mouth with framing acidity which gives the wine length and precision in addition to delicious lemon, there is yellow orchard fruit and a touch of nuttiness. The texture of the wine shows some honeyed character. It is showing the first subtle signs of secondary developments. It has balance and elegance. No hurry but the wine delivers already enormous pleasure. (1490 views) | | | Tasted by jhngo on 7/29/2020 & rated 90 points: Good. Not as green as a few years ago. (1240 views) | | | Tasted by jhw425 on 6/4/2020 & rated 92 points: Given how consistently good this case has been and how well this wine drank on night two I may have the courage to give a few of these bottles the 5-10 additional years they deserve (1216 views) | | | Tasted by jhw425 on 5/14/2020 & rated 92 points: Same as before. Textbook dauvissat and just barely entering its window. Still shuts down after 60-75min (1057 views) | | | Tasted by jhngo on 1/6/2020 & rated 86 points: It’s okay. Had the acids but a bit searing and sweet. (1167 views) | | | Tasted by jhw425 on 12/24/2019 & rated 91 points: Best immediately upon opening or tons of air. Closed down between 2-5 hours.
Similar to prior not (1029 views) | | | Tasted by PC73 on 12/19/2019 & rated 92 points: Superb showing. Classic Chablis. Linear, taut, salty with a touch of sweetness showing through. Apple. Sea salt. This bottle had great energy and intensity, full of tension but in a really balanced way. (1064 views) | | | Tasted by jhw425 on 11/2/2019 & rated 93 points: RLove nailed the note. Found this to be open and in a really good spot. None of the ripeness I’ve tasted in some of his 2013s. In a spot where it is out of its right/dumb phase but not really secondary or getting that saltiness that comes around 10 years (1060 views) | | | Tasted by rlove on 7/30/2019 & rated 92 points: Taut minerality meets that Dauvissat savoriness with appealing stone, honey, and algae aromas. Texturally, there's a crispness that expands to an appealing midpalate density. The 2013 Séchet doesn't show any of the vintage's exoticism. Very good. (1236 views) | | | Tasted by rlove on 7/21/2018 & rated 92 points: A surprisingly complex nose shows at times lemon curd, smoke, honey, and algae. This was closed on initial open, finding life with air, eventually gaining impressive midpalate weight and intensity to the citrus, stone, and honey flavors. The 2013 Séchet shows that vintage's concentration without any of its exoticism or rot. Impressive. Drink now through 2025. (1520 views) | | | Tasted by ove_stammrud on 3/12/2017: Kandisert sitron, eple, skifer, sjøvann, gul blomst og tropiske toner i retning stjerne frukt. Vell-balansert munnfølelse med strukturert syre og touch av honning. Flott fylde i midtpartiet som som gradvis forløser en lang sammenhengende finish. Drikker bra etter lufting i karaffel. (1953 views) | | | Tasted by Cellarslacker on 8/12/2016 & rated 91 points: Wow.
Way too tight. And still so so good it barely matters. Sour pineapple, lemon fumé and seashell on the nose. So tense, so sturdy. Palate is linear and compact in texture. High toned and tersely luscious, this rolls up the tongue leisurely, expanding as it goes. Finish is quite long but not outrageous. Creme Brulee and sesame seeds. This needs what, 4 years? Good stuff, and textbook for the vintage and site. (2006 views) | | | Tasted by soyhead on 6/25/2016: nose - orange peel
mouth - sleek, vinous, densly concentrated, anise.long (2200 views) | | | Only displaying the 25 most recent notes - click to see all notes for this wine... |

2022 harvest: idealwine.info | wine-searcher.comBurgundy Les vins de Bourgogne (Bureau interprofessionnel des vins de Bourgogne) (and in English)
Burgundy - The province of eastern France, famous for its red wines produced from Pinot Noir and its whites produced from Chardonnay. (Small of amounts of Gamay and Aligoté are still grown, although these have to be labeled differently.) The most famous part of the region is known as the Cote d'Or (the Golden Slope). It is divided into the Cote de Beaune, south of the town of Beaune (famous principally for its whites), and the Cote de Nuits, North of Beaune (home of the most famous reds). In addition, the Cote Chalonnaise and the Maconnais are important wine growing regions, although historically a clear level (or more) below the Cote d'Or. Also included by some are the regions of Chablis and Auxerrois, farther north.

# 2013 Vintage Notes:
* "2013 is a vintage that 20 years ago would have been a disaster." - Will Lyons
* "low yields and highly variable reds, much better whites." - Bill Nanson
* "Virtually all wines were chaptalised, with a bit of sugar added before fermentation to increase the final alcohol level." - Jancis Robinson
# 2014 Vintage Notes:
"We have not had such splendid harvest weather for many years. This will ensure high quality (fragrant, classy and succulent are words already being used) across the board, up and down the hierarchy and well as consistently from south to north geographically apart from those vineyards ravaged by the hail at the end of June." - Clive Coates
# 2015 Vintage Notes:
"Low yields and warm weather allowed for ample ripeness, small berries and an early harvest. Quality is looking extremely fine, with some people whispering comparisons with the outstanding 2005 vintage. Acid levels in individual wines may be crucial." - Jancis Robinson
# 2017 Vintage Notes:
"Chablis suffered greatly from frost in 2017, resulting in very reduced volumes. As ever, the irony seems to be that what remains is very good quality, as it is in the Côte d’Or. Cooler nights across the region have resulted in higher-than-usual acidity, with good conditions throughout the harvest season allowing for ripe, healthy fruit." - Jancis Robinson
# 2018 Vintage Notes:
"The most successful region for red Burgundy in 2018 was the Côte de Beaune. The weather was ideal in this area, with just enough sunlight and rain to produce perfectly balanced wines naturally." - Vinfolio
Chablis Chablis (Fédération de Défense de l'Appellation Chablis) | Chablis (Burgundy Wines)
2014 Vintage Notes:
"... a hybrid of 2004/2007 and 2010. The stone, citrus and limestone amalgam is exactly what we search for in Chablis as the style harkens to a day in the Cote de Beaune proper (1960's - 1980's) when wine was not meant to be consumed the week it was released, battonage was not used by all and new oak was rarely seen ... the texture is natural and 'of the vintage' not 'of the winemaker' .... Like Sancerre or the Loire in general, 2014 in Chablis is one of those rare years with extract and transparency. It appears to be a vintage for the "neoclassic" ages and those of us intent on cellaring the most terroir-driven (but still powerful) examples of vineyard, site-place and varietal will want to invest (heavily) in the magnetic and electric 2014's." - Jon Rimmerman
2018 Vintage Notes:
"There’s not that razor sharp Chablis acidity in 2018,” says Patrick Piuze. “But there is good definition of place. The dry conditions drove vines to drink deeper down in the soil profile."
