2009 Dauvissat Chablis Forest

Tasting note: A notably more complex nose offers up more classic Chablis aromas that include oyster shell, tidal pool and white flower aromas cut with just a hint of citrus that can also be found on the rich, generous, concentrated and quite powerful medium plus weight flavors that evidence noticeable salinity on the mouth coating and impressively persistent finish. Good stuff here and worth your interest. Burghound 90-93 Sweet spot Outstanding!

The 2009 La Forest is the most reserved wine in the lineup to this point and it will be a stellar example of the vintage. The brilliant bouquet soars from the glass in a 11 beautiful blend of apples, tart citrus tones, flint, wet stones and lemon peel. On the palate the wine is deep full-bodied, tight and absolutely racy, with a gorgeous core of fruit, brisk acids and a brilliantly intense, palate-staining, mineral bath of a finish. A great, great vintage for the Dauvissat La Forest! 2016-2040. 94. JG - View from the Cellar
