Domaine Louis Michel & Fils Description
Sourced from vines between 35 and 50 years of age evenly divided between parcels of Mélinots, Châtains and Roncières in the Vaillons Cru
Vinous: 90-92 Points
The 2022 Chablis Vaillons 1er Cru comes from two parcels (Vaillons and Roncières). It has a very aromatic floral bouquet with mirabelle, jasmine and orchard fruit, with a hint of nougat in the background. Very fine delineation. The palate is taut and crisp on the entry, slightly waxy in texture, and maybe even a little petrol-y in style. It has good depth and crisp acidity but shuts down somewhat towards the finish. Cellar for 3-4 years.
Burghound: 90-93 Points
A markedly more floral-suffused nose reveals additional notes of spice, shellfish and just sliced citrus. The sleek, well-detailed and more refined middleweight flavors aren't as powerful or rich yet I like the balance and overall sense of harmony. This understated effort is a Vaillons of finesse.
