2021 Chablis, Vaillons, 1er Cru, Domaine Besson, Burgundy

Description

More peach and apricot fruit on the nose and palate. It has enough acidity to keep everything on track but lacks a bit of the focus expected. Certainly a very sunny example of Vaillons. It could well shed some 'puppy fat' after another year and merit a higher score.

Drink 2023 - 2027
