BURGHOUND 96/2034+

"(from 3 different parcels of 50+ year old vines that total 1.0 ha). This ripe effort displays an abundance of classic Chablis aromas of smoky mineral reduction, citrus peel, oyster shell and acacia blossom as well as just the vaguest hint of the exotic. There is terrific punch and a taut muscularity to the more mineral-driven middleweight plus flavors that exhibit focused power on the impressively long and well-balanced finale. This is the densest wine in the range in 2022 and a wine that should age accordingly. In a word, brilliant."

The Dauvissat family has owned the estate since 1899. This family vineyard covers more than 9 hectares, the vines are on average 20 to 50 years old. 
 Vincent Dauvissat has been working in biodynamic viticulture for many years, it is a state of mind and a strong conviction. Far from him the media research, his wines speak for themselves: purity and minerality are the key words. 
 
 The Winemaker 
 The rigorous and passionate Vincent Dauvissat has been managing this mythical property since 1989. He succeeded his grandfather Robert, who was already bottling in 1931, and his father René, whose wines were renowned. Étiennette, Vincent's daughter, has now joined her father. The vineyard has always been tended like a garden and the wise yields deserve all the honors. Since 2002, the estate has been receiving biodynamic preparations, without claiming certification. The vinification in barrels (which never takes precedence over the material) is not very interventionist, allowing the expression of the various climates, especially with aging. Chablis of a rare sincerity, of a pure, compact, vibrant style, relatively unprotected in sulfur. 
 The range can be discovered in wine shops, as there is unfortunately no more wine for sale at the estate.
