Top Value Premier Cru Chablis

Domaine Bègue-Mathiot Premier Cru Chablis “Vaillons” 2023. Wine Name: Domaine Bègue-Mathiot Premier Cru Chablis “Vaillons” Appellation: Chablis Premier Cru AOC, Burgundy Climat: Vaillons Vintage: 2023 Grape Varieties: 100% Chardonnay Alcohol Content: 13.0% ABV Vinification: Cold fermentation in stainless steel tanks to highlight fruit clarity and site expression. Maturation: Aged 8 months on fine lees in tank with gentle bâtonnage, building texture while preserving vibrancy. No oak. Tasting Note: In contrast to the edgier vivacity of the domaine’s 2025 Petit Chablis, the Vaillons 2023 offers a softer, more opulent take on the region—without sacrificing Chablis’ signature tension. This Premier Cru dazzles from the outset with an aromatic mosaic of lemon tart, shortbread, ginger crème brûlée, and wild strawberry, enriched by fig, wet stone, and a decadent whisper of chocolate honeycomb. The palate is where 2023’s charm shines brightest: it’s tangy yet supple, with a juicy, rounded mouthfeel that glides gracefully across the tongue. A fine thread of minerality provides lift and definition, while citrus oil and pastry notes carry through the long, savoury finish. Already fabulous in its youth, this Vaillons will continue to evolve gracefully through 2032+. Pair with creamy scallop dishes, grilled lobster, or aged Comté for maximum indulgence. Post arrival price will be $83.95 Today’s pre-departure price is $55.95 This wine is part of the shipment scheduled to arrive in September/October 2026.
