Domaine Vincent Dauvissat Chablis 1er Cru Séchet 2017

A standout bottling from Domaine Vincent Dauvissat, the 2017 Chablis 1er Cru Séchet combines concentrated Chardonnay with the taut, chalk-driven character that distinguishes this Premier Cru. From a small parcel in the Vaillons valley, it offers a particularly vivid expression of Chablis’s limestone-rich terroir.

Tasting Notes
Pale gold in the glass, it opens with delicate aromas of citrus zest, grapefruit, crisp green apple and white flowers, joined by subtle oyster-shell notes. The palate is medium- to full-bodied, silky and concentrated, with a dense core of fruit, lively tension and a sharply mineral finish. Its concentration and structure give it the potential to develop with further cellaring, gaining complexity over time while retaining its characteristic freshness.

Production
Séchet lies in the Vaillons valley, where Dauvissat owns a 0.8-hectare parcel. More exposed to the wind and richer in active limestone than other Vaillons climats, the site typically gives wines a particularly chalky, energetic profile. The grape variety is Chardonnay; specific harvest and vinification details for this bottling are not provided.

Food & Serving
Serve lightly chilled, around 10–12°C. Its citrus freshness and saline, mineral character make a natural match for oysters, shellfish, grilled fish and simply prepared poultry. Pour straight from the bottle; a brief airing in the glass should be sufficient, while extended decanting is not necessary.

Producer
Domaine Vincent Dauvissat is a family-run estate in Chablis, widely regarded as one of the region’s leading producers. Its wines are prized for their clarity of site expression, concentration and mineral precision, and its Premier and Grand Cru bottlings have helped establish the domaine’s reputation among Chablis’s most sought-after names.
