The Grand Cru vineyard of Les Preuses sits at the very top of the hillside. This famous 29-acre vineyard has arguably the best exposition of any of the Grands Crus on the côte, being higher up on the hillside with even better drainage than its neighbors. It also receives more hours of sunshine than any other Grand Cru. Les Preuses is known for offering wines that are easy to drink. It gives the impression of more roundness, lushness and fat on the palate.

This 2006 'Les Preuses' is a must-have cellar item for all Chablis lovers. The balance between fruit, acidity and power is simply remarkable; needless to say though the ripeness allows for enjoyable drinking in its youth, this wine merits some cellaring. Snatch this bottle up as it is available in limited quantities.

Wine Profile

Tasting Notes "Rich and powerful, with lemon cake, peach and vanilla aromas and flavors. This starts out fine, getting a little muddled by the finish. A touch hot in the end. Needs time to sort itself out. Best from 2010 through 2018." 140 cases made. –BS
