Domaine Dampt Petit Chablis Vieilles Vignes 2016
Petit Chablis AOC
Loading...
Chablis is one of the world’s most revered wines. While Petit Chablis comes from soils just outside the hallowed area, when it tastes as good as this minerally, citrusy, intense 2016 from a top estate, you’ll find it hard to spot the difference.

The Wine
Although the village of Chablis is tiny, its influence and fame is anything but. So outstanding are the flavours of its Chardonnay wines that it has inspired imitations (which inevitably are never as fine) as far afield as California and Australia. The long established Dampt estate makes textbook Chablis, but it’s this wine, from vineyards designated Petit Chablis, that offers the smartest entrée to their range. By employing the same exacting standards of vineyard management as they do for their top wines, the Dampt brothers achieve surprisingly concentrated flavours, classic summer hay aromas, and that all important streak of bone dry minerality. Enjoy this fine Petit Chablis with freshly shucked oysters, wild salmon or grilled Dover sole.
Although the village of Chablis is tiny, its influence and fame is anything but.
Easily as good as many Premiers Crus. Goes with lots of foods, as it has body. Just don’t over-chill
