Chablis Grand Cru Valmur 2014

Galloni über: Chablis Grand Cru Valmur

-- Galloni: Pale, bright green. White peach, lime zest and nutmeg on the nose and palate. Rich and tactile on the palate, with the creaminess of texture that comes from a high proportion of millerandé berries. Boasts superb inner-mouth tension for its size and finishes very long and smooth, with little sign of phenolics. Piuze told me he always picks this parcel at 5:00 on a sunny afternoon because that approach results in flakier lees. He compared this to picking a tomato: 'If you bite into it in the morning it's tight but if you pick it later in the day it will be full of taste.' Splendid potential here. -- Stephen Tanzer 92-95/100
