Reviewed June 2024Some parts are very clay based, one on top, one west facing. Fresh pale lemon colour, with some citrus on the nose too. A lightly grassy note as well. Plenty of tension on the palate, discreet in the middle, a little richer at the finish. He has two plots, high up where it flattens out. Classy yet of medium body.

There are 40 main 1er Cru vineyards in Chablis and Vaucoupin is one of its largest. A steep, south-facing, sun-drenched vineyard located in southeast Chablis, Vaucoupin produces full round and ripe expressions of Chardonnay. 2023 was hot and dry. In typical Burgundy fashion, viticulturists had to battle spring frosts, rain (mildew!), and drought to make it to the finish line, but the harvest had high yields of lush ripe grapes. The Agnes Gleizes is lean, high tone citrus, racy acidity, with a rich ripe mouthfeel and a terrific tropical finish!

This wine is bright, zesty, and complex! It's definitely racy, but there's orchard fruit and that Chablisienne salinity to balance it out. This wine is dense and complex, though, and the layers just continue to unfurl as you sip. This is a bottle that will continue to impress as it opens over the course of your evening. It's also a nice candidate for aging if you're looking to fill out your cellar!

Elegant and delicate this Chablis has stone fruit dominating the palate and minerality is generous yet subtle. Great aperitif wine or accompaniment to light cuisine. I like the hints of white peach in it and Meyer lemon notes. Crowd pleasing Chablis that will be great party and dinner wine.
Notes
Bill Nanson Burgundy Report: "Two parcels that average nearly 50 years of age. Particular – part that had tiny yields and another part really not bad – the assembly brought half a harvest! All tank elevage, this from a November bottling.A broader freshness with a good mineral accent. Mouth-filling, fine underlying energy a finish of intensity that you can almost chew in this finish – Ooh, that’s going to be a super wine!!" (02/2025)
