2019 1er Cru Vaucrains
"Much more lively purple. After a series of very good wines, with the village cuvées close to the 1ers crus in quality, along comes this absolutely brilliant wine, so lively, with a taffeta texture alongside the necessary backbone. Enjoy the gorgeous perfumed cherry and raspberry fruit, absolutely not exaggerated. There is a perfect sense of balance to the 2019 Chicotot Les Vaucrains. Tasted: April 2021." - 5/5 Stars & 95pts Jasper Morris MW

89-91 Points, Neal Martin, Vinous ---- The 2019 Chablis Village is matured in stainless steel tank for 10 months. It has a tightly wound bouquet with scents of orange blossom and a touch of tinned apricot; good delineation here. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, and lively from the start, offering plenty of citrus fruit joined by desiccated orange peel and a touch of spice on the finish. Excellent.

"Interestingly, this is aromatically quite similar to the Valmur save for the presence of an abundance of floral and shellfish elements. The super-intense, indeed almost painful, broad-shouldered flavors possess evident minerality and outstanding delineation that possess a bracing salinity on the hugely long finale. This too is clearly built for extended cellaring and is going to need at least 5 to 7 before it will be approachable. In a word, excellent." - 95pts Burghound

"The 2019 Chablis Vaudésir Grand Cru, which I did not taste last year, offers well-defined scents of lemon sherbet, vervain tea and orange pith. The palate is vivacious and lively with a creamy texture. You might be duped into thinking there is more new oak in this cuvée, but it’s only around 5%. Taut and saline on the finish, this lingers wonderfully in the mouth. It will be difficult to resist in its youth." - 94pts Vinous

"The 2022 Gevrey-Chambertin Village has a lively bouquet of brambly red fruit tinged with sous-bois and redcurrant pastilles. Quite delicate and nicely focused. The fresh palate is relatively spicy on the entry and very well balanced, with a little more intensity on the finish than expected. Yet, it retains wonderful composure." - 91-93pts Vinous & Outstanding Burghound

"The very pretty nose is spicier still with its cool and broad-ranging panoply of aromas that include red cherry, violet and just a hint of earth. There is very fine volume to the refined, intense and gorgeously textured flavors that possess excellent depth and flat-out superb persistence. This is a Griotte of finesse but make no mistake, it has the underlying material and balance to age for years. A knockout." - Don't Miss!, Burghound ---- "There are fully two and a half barrels of the 2022 Griotte-Chambertin Grand Cru, a deep and multidimensional wine redolent of sweet berries, plums, vine smoke, rose petals and exotic spices. Full-bodied, satiny and suave, with a layered, textural core of sweet fruit framed by melting tannins, it's seamless and enveloping, concluding with an expansive finish." - 96-98pts WA

2020 Cotes d'Auxerre Blanc
Cotes d'Auxerre Blanc ---- "Lavallée's 2020 Bourgogne Côtes d'Auxerre Blanc is very promising, offering up notes of citrus, Anjou pear, green apple and white flowers. Medium-bodied, elegantly fleshy and concentrated, it's fine-boned but intensely flavored. It's produced from deep but stony soils and, in total, amounts to a mere four barrels." - 88-90pts William Kelley, Wine Advocate ---- One of my most exciting discoveries in Chablis and the Auxerrois was fledgling Domaine Clément Lavallée. Clement's father is the proprietor of a substantial, modern and mechanized domaine in Saint-Bris, but Clément's aspirations were more artisanal. He started his own label in 2019, with just 3.5 hectares supplemented by purchased fruit - a surface that's grown to 5.5 hectares today. Eschewing herbicides, he cultivates the soils with lightweight tractors and keeps chemical treatments to the minimum. Working with a variety of sites and cépages, harvest lasts a full month. In the cellar, whites see a long pressing, with Clément selling in bulk any juice that doesn't please him, and reds see long macerations with a percentage of whole bunches. Élevage takes place in used wood on the lees, and the wines are never pumped. What I tasted on this first visit indicates that Lavallée hit the ground running with his very first vintage. Textural but incisive, pure and penetrating, I was immensely impressed by these young wines - from pungently mineral Chablis, to perfumed and intense reds, to Saint-Bris that's more Auxerrois than it is Sauvignon, everything here comes warmly recommended, and I encourage importers to beat a path to this new domaine's door.
