Louis Michel Chablis 1er Cru "Butteaux" Vieilles Vignes 2023

91 BH

Notes:

Smoky reduction currently dominates the nose so be sure to give this some air first. Otherwise, the delicious middle weight plus flavors possess better volume and more evident power on the sappy, lingering and well-balanced finale that is borderline tannic. I wouldn't describe this as racy but I really like the mouthfeel thanks to the sappy dry extract provided by the old vines. Burghound 91 Outstanding!

If anything, the Vieilles Vignes is paler in colour than the straight Butteaux, with a very slightly more exotic nose, but still a delight. Good tension at the back, tightly wound, more marine, just a little plus in all directions over the regular. Salivating finish. Drink from 2028-2033. Tasted Jun 2025. Jasper Morris 93
