Jean Dauvissat Chablis 2022

This is Chablis with clarity—bright, mineral-driven, and honest. Jean Dauvissat’s 2022 bottling is a standout expression of unoaked Chardonnay from a rising-star producer quietly redefining tradition in the region. While the name Dauvissat rings familiar in Chablis, this domaine charts its own course under the direction of Fabien Dauvissat, who has converted the estate’s 40+ parcels across 7 communes to organic and biodynamic farming.

Fermented and aged in stainless steel for up to 20 months, the wine is beautifully precise: orchard fruit, citrus blossom, and crushed seashells give way to a palate that is both lifted and layered. There’s a real salinity here—ocean spray meets green apple and wet stone—balanced by just enough ripe fruit to keep things supple.

A modern take on classic Chablis, rooted in clean farming and a gentle hand in the cellar. No oak, no artifice—just purity and poise from one of the appellation’s most promising young voices.

Perfect with: Oysters, grilled seabass, sushi, or a quiet evening with a chilled glass and a breeze.
For fans of: Pure Chardonnay, cool-climate whites, or mineral wines with verve.
