More open-kint and slightly more broad-shouldered than the left bank’s Montmains and La Forêt, Bessin-Tremblay’s 2022 Chablis 1er Cru Fourchaume is an expressive wine, wafting from the glass with aromas of beeswax, green apple and iodine. On the palate, it’s medium to full-bodied, bright and precise, laden with racy acidity and reserves of chalky structuring extract, concluding with a long, mineral finish. This too comes highly recommended.

Based on intelligent farming, one of the reference points for this storied vineyard is again Bessin-Tremblay’s 2022 Chablis Grand Cru Valmur. Soaring from the glass with a bouquet of kaleidoscopic complexity, featuring aromas of grapefruit zest, fennel and beeswax, mingling with crisp orchard fruit, it’s full-bodied, deep and layered, with tangy acids and a minerally, tensile personality, concluding with a persistent, saline finish. It has retained plenty of taut Chablisien character and unites the generosity of the vintage to great effect. While many worry of the warming climate, the Bessins have once again produced an excellent set of wines, and as far as their range is concerned, it does not get much better than this Valmur.
