Domaine Thierry Laffay Chablis 1er ‘Mont de Milieu’ 2021
$105
Description
“Starting with a tiny reduction – this with cork – most of the earlier bottles are diam… Slowly more complex but still a compact nose. More impact in the mouth, slightly rounder too – supple and more generous but not lacking any energy – I prefer the more frank expression of the
previous two wines – so give this time – it’s still only tank élévage here.”
The Burgundy Report
A note on the 2021’s: The 2021 Laffay’s are a blast from the classically styled Chablis of the 1970’s with lower alcohols, cutting acidity with wonderful transparency, complexed by balanced & intriguing funky reduction. Tank fermented & aged with the exception of the Grand Cru Vaudésir. They have excellent development with freshness, no puppy fat. Some wise winemaking clearly at play. These make for a great comparison with the richer 2020’s. A matter of celebrating the differences between the two years, & enjoying two styles with the same overarching philosophy of making grape-first wines of energy & personality.
