Two plots – Les Deux Terres – one more limestone, one more clay.
Nice, fresh lemony nose. Good weight to the fruit on the palate, lemons and spritzy green apples. Very harmonious. Lovely aperitif wine. L&S (Dec 2023)

*Case price discount: Mix any 12 bottles of wine (or 9 litre equivalent) or 6 bottles of Champagne, Spirits, Sweet Wine or Fortified (4.5 litres) to get the discounted 'case price' for each bottle.
Complex and inviting aroma, sweet citrus, a touch of blossom, chalky, too. This is approachable but has lots going for it, deep without being rich. Firm, leesy texture and good length. GV Drinking range: 2025 - 2028 Rating: 16.5 Julia Harding MW, www.JancisRobinson.com (Jan 2024)
Domaine Agnès, Didier & Florent Dauvissat
Domaine Agnès & Didier Dauvissat was founded in 1986, and is based in the village of Beine at the eastern end of 1er Cru Beauroy. Agnès and Didier planted all their vineyard themselves. This amounts to around 10 ha now, made up of 3.5ha of Petit Chablis, planted on hard Portlandian limestone soils full of marine fossils on the plateau above Fyé, 4.5 hectares of Chablis planted in the villages of Courgis and Fyé, on south-facing slopes which are the southerly continuation of the slope of the Grands Crus, and finally a 2 ha plot or 1er cru Beauroy which is above the lake slightly toward the eastern side of the middle of this Premier Cru, and exposed to the south-west. The vines are now reaching full maturity and producing what is obviously some very high-quality fruit.
Florent, Agnès and Didier's son, has now joined the domaine and seems to be something of a wine-making talent - as Neal Martin wrote in his 2019/2020 Chablis report 'Could Florent Dauvissat be the next great winemaker to bear that famous surname?'. The wines are made in completely classical way, in stainless steel and aged on the lees for 12 months.
