Domaine des Malandes Chablis 1er Fourchaume 2020
Details
94 Points + Editors’ Choice | WS
“Whiffs of flinty, smoky reduction on the nose of this wine air out nicely to reveal sun-streaked tones of yellow cherry, Mirabelle and tangerine. Fruity yet anchored firmly by steel and salt, the wine should drink at peak from 2023 through 2035 and hold further still.” - Wine Enthusiast

“Restrained aromas of iodine, green apple and citrus is trimmed in a dollop of wood toast. There is excellent intensity to the saline and delineated middle weight flavors on the chiseled, clean and sneaky long finish.” - Burghound

“One of the richer, more gourmand wines in the range is the 2020 Chablis 1er Cru Fourchaume, a medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy wine redolent of crisp stone fruit, pastry cream, green apple and pear. Despite its texture and volume, it remains lively and Chablisien in style. Drink this 2020 while the more tightly wound 2019 develops in the cellar.” - Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
