2014 has widely been talked of as an excellent vintage for white Burgundy and Chablis. The quality of the vintage shines through in this modest Petit Chablis from Denis Pommier. Although relatively simple, it has excellent fruit intensity and a touch of gunflint one associates with Chablis.
There is a lot to like about Pommier’s Petit Chablis. It is a wine that delivers well above the appellation norm and is dangerously drinkable.
