Julien Brocard Chablis Vigne de la Boissonneuse Organic Biodynamic 2023
Definitely a green streak to the colour. The nose is full of energy, with a touch of verbena. Fine steely intensity, very Chablis, barely a feel of the vintage except around the edges. This has an exciting future. Drink from 2026-2029. Tasted Jun 2024.
Star rating: 89-92

"A very classy combination of the extra richness found in 2022, with zesty lime acidity and a distinctive, salty edge to finish. A great Chablis to drink as an accompaniment to food. Long, precise and very pure on the finish. Organic and from a different part of the Brocard operation in Préhy."

Neal Martin writes: The 2021 Chablis La Boissonneuse has a classically-styled, marine-influenced bouquet with shucked oyster shells complementing the malic fruit. Fine focus. The palate is well balanced with orange rind and touches of peach skin on the entry, a dab of stem ginger with a slightly resinous finish. This has good potential. - Vinous
Slightly richer and fleshier than village Chablis, more reminiscent of a premier cru, with an impressive balance of honeyed apple, stone and tropical fruits with underlying mineral notes that builds into a crescendo of harmonious complexity. Well-proportioned acidity holds everything together and the finish is remarkably long and seductive. Demeter certified Biodynamic.
