Vinous: 91-93 Points
The 2020 Chablis Vaillon 1er Cru is 35% matured in barrel until March, when the entire production is transferred into tank. It has a detailed, floral bouquet of pressed white flower and dandelion scents mixed with honeysuckle and orange pith. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, orange peel flavors and hints of mandarin. Taut and fresh toward the finish. This is a classy 2020 Vaillon to follow on from the strong 2019.
Burghound: 89-91 Points
Here too the nose is exuberantly fruity while displaying background hints of lemon rind, white flower, brine and algae. There is a lovely texture to the utterly delicious middle weight flavors that exhibit good length on the slightly more tightly wound finale. This does need to develop more depth but that should occur over the next 2 to 3 years.
