Vincent Dauvissat
Montée de Tonnerre Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay
Chablis, Burgundy, France
Showing just as well as the bottle some weeks back. The first vintage of Dauvissat’s MDT, with just 2 barrels made and hardly any came to the US. It sits in a great place, super giving and ready to drink. It’s seamlessly balanced and finely detailed showing a complex array of yellow fruit, lilies, wildflower honey and hazelnut with lemony acids and a stony minerality. It fills out with air and continues to gain volume and focus. Great bottle.

Vincent Dauvissat “Montée de Tonnerre” 2013- The first vintage of Dauvissat’s MDT, with just 2 barrels made and incredibly minuscule amounts making its way overseas. It’s super giving, seamlessly balanced and finely detailed showing a complex array of yellow fruit, lilies, wildflower honey and hazelnut with lemony acids and a stony minerality. It continued to gain volume and focus with air. A true competitor to Raveneau’s 2013 MDT, if not the wine I actually found myself ultimately savoring. It’s just in a great place and very ready to drink.

Ripe meyer lemon, lilacs, amazing bouquet, honey, salinity finish. So good.

A rare discovery- the first vintage of Dauvissat’s new vineyard. This was consumed in plastic cups during a concert but it showed as well as a young 1er could under the circumstances. I was impressed and would love to compare with his other bottlings.
