The Unheralded Dauvissat:
2021 Dauvissat Chablis 1er Cru Sechets

Posted by Ian McFadden

For us, Séchet is the unheralded bottle of Dauvissat's lineup.

Séchet is for purists. It’s a bottling that boasts a deep cut and a blatant expression of salinity. There’s a directness and elegance to Séchet that always impresses us.

It's simply a dazzling and full-force expression of Chablis' unique minerality. The Séchet has the classic razor's edge of textured minerality, and then the vintage kicks up the punch and presence. In 2021, Séchet is a site that shined. 

Dauvissat produced an amazing cast of 2021s. Burghound has written: "I agree with Dauvissat's take on his 2021s as they are seriously good, and particularly so if classic old school Chablis is your passion."

I'll wrap this up. This is a small parcel, and word is clearly out on Dauvissat's 2021s. Please give us your ideal order, and we'll try our best.

Title

Burghound: "Prominent notes of shellfish and mineral reduction add breadth to the aromas of lemon rind, apple and discreet floral wisps that also include a suggestion of the exotic. The racy and intensely citrus-suffused medium-bodied flavors exude plenty of minerality on the attractively dry, youthfully austere and linear finale. This firm if not especially dense effort is going to require at least a few years of keeping to unwind and add depth but ultimately, it should be excellent if given time."
