A restrained nose timidly expresses its aromas of petrol, sea breeze, citrus confit and white orchard fruit. The nicely rich, round and delicious middleweight flavors possess good density while delivering fine length on the clean, dry and sneaky long finish. This is a highly attractive villages and recommended. Drinking range: 2023 - 2026 Rating: 90 Allen Meadows, www.Burghound.com (Jan 2023)
The 2020 Chablis Village offers up aromas of sweet orchard fruit, fresh bread, citrus oil and blanched almonds. Medium-bright and precise, with a fleshy core of fruit and a saline finish, it's very promising. Rating: 90-92 William Kelley, The Wine Advocate (Jan 2022)
The Tributs have 1.5 ha by 1er Cru Forêt, 0.75ha on the plateau above 1er Cru Beauroy and a bit in Courgis. The wine strikes a fresh apple note, with a dry Dauvissat-style austerity. Pleasingly long and tangy apple taste Rating: 87-89 Jasper Morris - Inside Burgundy (Jan 2022)
Domaine Laurent Tribut
Laurent Tribut is married to Vincent Dauvissat's sister, Marie Clotilde. When he started he made his wines in the Dauvissat cellar in Chablis, but now this small family-run domaine is based in Poinchy. Laurent has now officially retired and has now handed over to three of their four children (Solange, Adeline and Gabriel), with Solange taking the lead in the winery. With Laurent’s guidance the future here looks very bright.
With just 6 hectares the quantities are small - but the quality of all the cuvées is extraordinary. Pure, powerfully driven, classically shaped there is more than a passing similarity to the wines of his brother-in-law, the head-line grabbing Vincent Dauvissat. Buyers will enjoy these long-lived wines with some time in bottle too - they have a great ability to age and patience will pay off, we recently tasted the 1er Cru Côte de Léchet 2004 with Laurent in his cellar and it was bright, young and full of vigour - nearly 15 years on, and in 2020 the 2000 Beauroy was still in it’s prime. This is brilliant, classic Chablis.
