Chablis Grand Cru Valmur 2016 - Bessin-Tremblay
Chablis Grand Cru - White - 13.0 % - 75 cL
The 2016 Chablis Grand Cru Valmur from Domaine Bessin-Tremblay is the ultimate expression of an exceptional terroir located in the heart of the Chablis Grand Cru vineyards. Originating from an emblematic amphitheater-shaped vineyard, this wine combines intensity, depth, and elegance, while retaining the tension and minerality characteristic of the finest Chablis.
The Valmur vineyard, located between Les Clos and Vaudésir, benefits from ideal exposure and Kimmeridgian soils rich in calcareous marl and marine fossils. It produces structured, deep wines with remarkable aging potential.
This 2016 Chablis Grand Cru Valmur reveals a pale yellow color with brilliant golden highlights. The nose is complex and profound , blending white flowers , ripe citrus fruits , white-fleshed fruits , iodine notes, flint , and a subtly smoky touch.
On the palate, the attack is lively and precise, with ample and concentrated substance. The balance between richness and tension is remarkable, driven by a saline minerality typical of Valmur. The finish is long, energetic, and persistent, with great aromatic purity.
