Fantastisk klassisk Chablis dyrket efter økologiske principper, med bl.a vildgær. Druen er Chardonnay og fra det nordligste Bourgogne, og i Gilbert’s hænder får man disse fantastiske vine med noter af flint, orangeblomst, honning og citron. Smagen er ganske kraftig, raffineret, og vinen vil gøre sig fantastisk til skaldyr, sushi eller kraftigere fiskeretter. 2018 er allerede udnævnt til værende en super årgang.
“The 2017 Chablis Dessus la Carrière displays a lovely alliance of ripeness and tension, bursting with aromas of crisp peach, green apple and Meyer lemon. On the palate, it’s medium to full-bodied, glossy and textural, but its lavish attack soon segues into a tense, chalky, stony mid-palate and finish that’s tongue-tinglingly vibrant. It’s a Chablis AOC that would embarrass many premiers crus” Wine Advocate 90-92 + point om årgang 2017
“The 2017 Chablis Dessus la Carrière, which comes from two parcels and was not produced in 2016 due to frost, offers beeswax and slightly resinous aromas on the nose that unfurl nicely in the glass. The palate is quite effervescent on the entry with orange rind and mandarin complementing the mineral notes, the second half linear and poised with a dab of spice right on the finish. I like the “flow” of this Chablis and the build in the mouth. Excellent. ” 91-93 point Vinous om årgang 2017
