Other Reviews....
The 2018 Chablis Vaudésir Grand Cru is one of the most exotic, flamboyant wines in the range. Marzipan, candied lemon confit, passionfruit and honeyed notes add to an impression of deep, exotic beauty. The 2018 isn't a shy wine, nor it is exactly subtle, but it is flat-out delicious and arresting in its beauty. Drink it with richer foods.

Vinous

Smoky and mildly exotic aromas consist of matchstick, iodine, algae and ripe white and yellow-fleshed fruit. The mouth feel of the middle weight flavors is even finer if perhaps not quite as dense though the stony finish is notably more complex, at least at present. This is very good and worth a look.

Fermented in just less than 40% oak. This has a very expressive, yellow-fruit nose with peaches, mangoes and apricots, as well as sweet flowers and fresh almonds. The palate has rich, round and mouth-filling, soft and supple fruit flesh. Delicious, full finish. Drink on release or hold.
