FEATURES
🏰 The 2011 Vincent Dauvissat Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru is a 【monumental Chablis, renowned for its intense oceanic minerality and exceptional aging potential】, despite 2011 being a challenging vintage in Burgundy. Dauvissat's 2011s are stunning, defined by their purity and minerality. This wine offers a deep and stunning nose with a youthful mix of pink grapefruit, green apple, complex flinty minerality, hay, orange zest, and a gentle base of vanillin oak. On the palate, it is deep, full-bodied, and nascently complex, with great purity, focus, glorious mid-palate depth, and brilliant length and grip. Expect evocative scents of sea breeze, kelp, driftwood, clam stock, and crustacean shell reduction, with an almost aggressively saline character.
🍴 This Grand Cru Chablis demands equally grand culinary partners. It is legendary with oysters and raw seafood, where its bracing acidity and saline minerality cleanse the palate. It also excels with roasted poultry with truffles, foie gras, veal in cream sauce, aged, firm cheeses, lobster thermidor, pan-seared scallops with beurre blanc, or rich fish like turbot or sea bass. For a unique pairing, try it with grilled octopus.
🥂 A truly special wine for a connoisseur's revelation, a significant celebration, or a luxurious seafood feast. This wine is a great wine in the making, with a drinking window extending for decades.
