Caves Jean et Sébastien Dauvissat

The 2002s are very full wines, with everything covered by fruit," says Jean Dauvissat, adding that the acid levels were in the sound 4 to 4.2 grams-per-liter range. It will be possible to drink the wines early or late. The 2000s, on the other hand, lack the acid spine for long aging," he went on. They're a bit mou and should be drunk within ten years." Two thousand was a vintage that could have used acidification, he told me, adding that he is not an acidifier. The 2001 harvest was much more difficult for this domain, as Dauvissat picks his fruit by machine and does not own a selection table. He did a longer, stronger debourbage to eliminate all but the finest lees. Not surprisingly, Dauvissat describes 2001 as a fragile vintage that needed a lot of SO2 (Rosenthal Wine Merchant, Shekomeko, NY) Also tasted: 2001 Chablis Montmains*.
