2018 Verget Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons

2018 Verget Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons

This very unique style of Vaillons from Verget was very interesting, as I never had such a stylish wine from Guffens (the winemaker for Verget) before. This was totally different from the past vintages of Vaillons, I remembered 2016 and 2017 Vaillons were very focused on acidity, but this one was very opposite, the stress here was fruits. By no means this Vaillons was inferior in acidity, as even the bouquet was spelling acidity, just that the fruits was truly unique, the feeling was like munching on a white peach, simply melts in the mouth with juices oozing out. However, it did not compromise on the acidity which was abundant too. I guess the vintage 2018 was in play here.
