Domaine Jean Dauvissat, Chablis Village 2023: a fresh, mineral-driven organic Chardonnay from the Serein Valley
The Chablis Village 2023 is the entry-level wine from Domaine Jean Dauvissat, a family-run estate in Milly. This dry white wine from the Chablis appellation, in Burgundy, is a pure Chardonnay grown using organic farming methods.
The Wine
Fabien Dauvissat runs this family estate, which he revived after a period during which the family had stopped bottling its wines. The vineyards are cultivated organically, following biodynamic principles. The plots are located on both sides of the Serein Valley, on clay-limestone and stony soils. The grapes are harvested by hand, and the wines ferment with native yeasts, plot by plot. The Chablis Village blends these plots to produce a wine that expresses the appellation.
Tasting Notes
The Chablis Village 2023 is a fresh and precise white wine, with notes of citrus and white fruits. The palate is straightforward, with a minerality reminiscent of stone and a hint of saltiness on the finish.
Serving and Food Pairings
Serve it chilled, but not ice-cold. It pairs well with oysters, seafood, grilled fish or fish in a light sauce, poultry in cream sauce, and goat cheese. For more ideas, read our food and wine pairings with Chablis.
