Domaine Jean Collet & Fils, Chablis Vaillons 2024 White

Domaine Jean Collet & Fils Chablis Vaillons 2024 is a classic Premier Cru Chablis from one of the appellation’s most respected family domaines. Made from Chardonnay grown on the celebrated Vaillons slopes, it combines Chablis’s signature freshness and mineral character with the added depth and length expected from Premier Cru vineyards. The domaine was founded in 1952 and has remained closely connected to the vineyards and cellars at the heart of Chablis.

Tasting Notes
The wine presents a bright, pale-gold appearance. On the nose, it offers the fresh, precise profile associated with Chablis, with aromas of citrus, green apple, white flowers and subtle mineral notes. The palate is dry and lively, balancing crisp acidity with a supple texture and a clean, saline finish. While appealing in its youth, this Premier Cru should develop additional complexity over the next several years, with careful cellaring allowing more rounded fruit and nuanced mineral and savoury notes to emerge.

Production
The Vaillons vineyards are situated on the slopes around the Serein Valley, where the distinctive Kimmeridgian limestone and marl soils contribute to Chablis’s characteristic freshness and mineral expression. Domaine Jean Collet & Fils farms its vineyards according to the principles of *lutte raisonnée*, an integrated and environmentally conscious approach intended to preserve the health of the vines and reveal the individuality of the terroir. Specific harvesting and vinification details for the 2024 vintage are not provided.

Food & Serving
Serve lightly chilled at around 10–12°C. Its bright acidity and mineral finish make it an excellent match for oysters, mussels, prawns, grilled or steamed fish, sushi and seafood salads; it also pairs well with goat’s cheese and simply prepared poultry. Decanting is not generally necessary, although allowing the wine to breathe briefly in the glass can help reveal its aromatic detail.

Producer
Founded in 1952, Domaine Jean Collet & Fils is based in the heart of Chablis, with the domaine’s vineyards spread across the finest slopes on both sides of the Serein River. The family estate was later strengthened when Gilles joined the team, and it now farms approximately 37 hectares, including Chablis Grand Cru, Premier Cru, Chablis and Petit Chablis. Its commitment to integrated vineyard management reflects a long-standing ambition to express the region’s distinctive terroir with clarity and respect.
