FOR THE 2015 VINTAGE
The 2015 Chablis Valmur has a detailed bouquet with yellow fruit, fig and light chalky scents that gain intensity in the glass. The palate is well balanced with a very sappy, saline entry. I appreciate the tension and mineral expression of this Valmur and toward the finish it maintains wonderful focus and a sense of energy. This is one of the best offerings from Brocard in 2015
