About this wine

Les Preuses tends to give a more ethereal, high-pitched expression of Grand Cru Chablis, and Pinson leans into that style. The 2021 vintage, from a cooler year, highlights grapefruit, white peach, blossom and a touch of smoke, over very fine, chalky minerality. Texture is medium-bodied but weightless, with a long, saline and slightly peppery finish. It’s a wine of line and nuance rather than brute power.

Tasting Note

Critic notes and Burgundy specialists describe Les Preuses as showing smoke, white flowers and citrus on the nose, with a palate that’s silky, intensely chalky and saline, finishing with white-pepper lift and very pure acidity.

In the glass

Light straw with silver highlights.

In the nose

Grapefruit, white peach, smoke, sea spray and white flowers.

On the palate

Elegant and tensile, with citrus and stone fruit over a very fine, chalky, saline line.

Charlene & Laurent Pinson

Domaine Pinson is a long-established Chablis estate now driven by Charlène and Laurent Pinson. They work prime sites, including Les Clos and Les Preuses, to produce Chardonnays with classic Chablis tension and a touch of modern polish. The wines combine citrusy drive, saline minerality and well-judged oak.
