"This is Zen-like in its sense of harmony and a wine that should amply repay 10 to 12 years of cellaring." -Burghound

If Les Clos is all muscle and force, Les Preuses will beguile with its finesse. It's a wine of supreme length and clarity; it is a fine-tuned expression of Chablis.

Along with Raveneau's Valmur and both producers' Les Clos, Dauvissat's Preuses is always on the must-have lists of top collectors.

Dauvissat simply nailed the 2023 vintage. There is likely no better place to witness Dauvissat's success in the vintage than the Preuses bottling. 

This is an amazing example of the Grand Cru. The 2023 is a profoundly mineral and concentrated wine. The beauty of the wine is how it combines great poise and intensity. It possesses an amazingly deep saline minerality and a soaring lift. It's a mind-blowing combination.

I'm going to wrap this up. Finding Preuses in any quantity has become very difficult. Please give us your ideal order, and we'll try our best.

Title

Burghound: "There is a fascinating hint of freshly crushed tarragon that I sometimes get in a classic Preuses along with hints of anise, petrol, white orchard fruit and a broad array of citrus elements. There is more volume still to the rich, enveloping and highly seductive medium-bodied flavors that display focused power on the equally well-balanced finale. This is Zen-like in its sense of harmony and a wine that should amply repay 10 to 12 years of cellaring."
