Description
Domaine Vincent Dauvissat is known for its exceptional Chablis wines, often considered among the best in the region. The winery is known for its traditional winemaking techniques, which emphasize minimal intervention and the expression of terroir.
The grapes are crushed whole-cluster to maintain natural pH levels, followed by fermentations in enamel-lined tanks and some barrels. The wine is then aged in 6-8 year old barrels. This barrel aging is crucial to their style, as it promotes ample oxygen exchange rather than aiming for reduction, allowing the wines to develop complexity.
