Nicolas Potel Chablis 2022

This is the step-up in reputation for Nicolas Potel’s Chablis (well, everyone’s Chablis with Petit Chablis sitting the rank below standard Chablis), yet the difference in price is minimal. Don’t hesitate to take advantage. A gleaming pale gold. This wine offers a fraction more depth and concentration than the Petit. There are also very early hints of the complexity to come. A wine with balance, the flavours of apricots and peaches especially, are to the fore. There is a hint of a chalky backing, with some spices and a lingering finish – this has a decade of good drinking ahead of it.
