Maison Dousset Vaucoupin 1er Cru Chablis 2019

Share

Philippe Millet’s dream was to produce great grapes but also vinify and sell his own wine, the dream now in the
hands of his two sons. The Vaucoupin is his top wine situated on a steep, south facing slope in the commune Chichée. The wine showcases yellow ripe lemonade fruit, with hints of ruby grapefruit zest and wet blue stones. White peach skin and small orchard apple flavours are on the palate with warmed butter and white cheese rind. The wine finishes with a refreshing linear Chablis drive. A hugely generous wine with the finesse of premier cru. Drink with good friends.
