2017 Chablis 1er Cru Côte de Lechet, Vincent Dampt

2017 Chablis 1er Cru Côte de Lechet, Vincent Dampt

Ref: DAMP172
White  |  Still  |  13% ABV

I visited Vincent at his winery back in November 2018 and subsequently saw him again and retasted his wines in London in January 2019. Vincent makes a village Chablis that is designed for immediate consumption, whilst retaining excellent character. But it’s his premiers crus that I really love. Both the winery and vineyards are on the left bank of the River Serein in a sector that produces especially mineral wines.

Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes

More limestone in the vineyard here. Vines are 55 years old. All stainless steel, too. Aromas are defined and bright and contain some dried white flowers. There’s a touch of something rooty here – almost liquorice – amongst the wealth of fruit on the palate. It’s more upright, with lovely bright orchard and citrus fruit and that saline apple acidity within. A chalky, lightly smoky core. Fabulous tension here. Super stuff. Bowes Wine original note

Sweetness Explained
Sweetness Explained

Sweetness

All our wines are given a Sweetness Indicator from 1 to 5, with 1 being the driest and 5 being the sweetest.
This can be found for every wine under the Wine Details tab. 

Most red wines are dry and therefore are indicated with a 1. The sweetness becomes more relevant with white wines, sparkling wines and pudding/dessert wines such as Sauternes and Tokaji.
