2022 Chablis, Domaine Sébastien Dampt
£2850Add to BasketSebastien Dampt is fast rising to the top echelons of Chablis winemaking. Year upon year, he delivers remarkable wines that are an ode to the regional terroir, reflecting both their devotion to winemaking and the rich heritage of Chablis. The domain is undoubtedly a perfect embodiment of tradition that meets modernity in wine-making.
This 2022 Chablis is made from five parcels of old vines (40-60 years old) that surround the Domaine in the village of Milly. It’s seriously good Chablis, bone dry, chalky, with notes of Granny Smith apple and citrus fruits and a firm, mineral finish.
In terms of vinification, Sébastien keeps it simple. His approach is traditional, as he learned from his father and grandfather. In Chablis, this means fermentation and maturation in steel tanks.

The wine does undergo the usual malolactic fermentation in Chablis, which rounds out the acids just a little more.

2022 Chablis, Michel Laroche et Ses Enfants, Le Domaine d”Henri
£2900Add to BasketLaroche is a famous name in Chablis, with family history dating as far back as 1695.

The wine expresses flint, herbal notes and citrus in the nose, classic traits of Chablis. Bright crisp acidity provides tension and backbone to the ripe flavors of melon, pear and almonds. Wonderfully versatile with food, this wine is as serious or playful as you would like.
