Buy Domaine Vincent Dauvissat Chablis 1er Cru La Forest 2018 Online – Premier Cru White Burgundy
A Premier Cru Chablis with Power, Purity, and Precision
The Domaine Vincent Dauvissat Chablis 1er Cru La Forest 2018 is a benchmark expression of Premier Cru Chablis, offering structure, depth, and unmistakable minerality. Sourced from the renowned La Forest vineyard—one of the most respected Premier Cru sites in Chablis—this wine exemplifies the hallmark purity and energy that defines great white Burgundy.
On the nose, expect floral aromatics layered with hints of lemon peel, fresh pear, iodine, and crushed stone. There's a subtle thread of spice that adds complexity without overshadowing the wine’s core character. The palate delivers a powerful yet finely tuned experience, with racy acidity and a dry, almost chewy finish—driven by a generous dose of sappy dry extract. Compared to Dauvissat’s Montee de Tonnerre, the La Forest 2018 is more muscular and intense, but equally layered and persistent.
