Critical Recognition
- 87 Points - Burghound (Allen Meadows): An appealingly fresh nose features notes of green fruit, iodine, petrol and plenty of citrus nuances that are also reflected by the generous and supple yet punchy middle weight flavors that conclude in refreshing bitter lemon-inflected finish. What this isn't is especially complex and given how forward the wine is, I'm not sure that a year or two of keeping will help very much.
Highlights
- 100% Chardonnay: A quintessential, unoaked expression of Petit Chablis, designed to highlight the grape's youthful energy and vivid citrus profile.
- The Producer: Domaine Daniel Dampt is a highly respected family estate in Chablis, known for their unwavering commitment to crafting pure, crystalline wines without the influence of oak.
- Winemaking: Fermented and aged entirely in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats. This protective environment preserves the bright primary fruit and locks in the bracing acidity that defines the region.
- Vintage Profile: The 2023 vintage is notably forward and generous. Rather than demanding time in the cellar, it is crafted for immediate pleasure, offering an uncomplicated, highly refreshing drinking experience right out of the gate.
Tasting Notes
Pouring a pale, shimmering lemon-green, this vibrant Petit Chablis opens with an appealingly fresh and energetic bouquet. Vivid notes of crisp green apple and bright citrus are interwoven with classic northern Burgundy accents of iodine and a subtle hint of petrol. On the palate, it is generous and supple, driven by a punchy, middleweight structure. The fruit character remains straightforward and remarkably pure, concluding in a highly refreshing, crisp finish inflected with a zesty touch of bitter lemon.
Serving Suggestion
- Temperature: Serve well-chilled at 46-50°F (8-10°C) in a standard white wine glass to maximize its crisp, thirst-quenching qualities.
- Decanting: Pop and pour; no decanting is necessary. Drink now to capture its youthful charm. It is an exceptional everyday aperitif that pairs effortlessly with freshly shucked oysters, fried calamari, or a tangy goat cheese salad.
