Chablis Grand Cru 2006 Les Preuses - Dauvissat
Vincent Dauvissat
The Les Preuses climat represents nearly 12 hectares. It lies to the north of Bougros, on a rather gentle slope, with a thicker soil than in the rest of the grands crus but rests on a fractured subsoil that provides excellent drainage. The name could once be spelled Pierreuse, which evokes the nature of the soil. The wines are rarely aromatic, but age very well. They develop a fleshy side without heaviness
2006 : 96-97/100 Parker
"Dauvissat’s 2006 Chablis Preuses smells of toasted grain, roasted nuts, pungent buckwheat, ripe peach, high-toned floral perfume suggesting gentian, and ocean breeze. An amazing depth of indescribable minerality – approximating meat stock and crustacean reduction, with suggestions of soy – saturates the palate, leading to a generous yet still mysteriously savory, mouth-watering finish that contrasts dramatically with the chalky, faintly bitter character of the La Forest. This should become an extraordinary example of terroir and minerality within the context of enveloping richness, and of richness without the least bit of heaviness, and should mature excitingly for the next 12-15 years." David Schildknecht
