The Unashamedly-Chablis issue. Chablis seems not just the class of the 2012 vintage whites, but also the clear value leader. As always, from these 195 wines the extra-special are highlighted in each tasting – assuming there are some!

Chablis – Producers worth your time
For my first ‘professional’ visit to Chablis I chose not to begin with a wish-list of domaines to visit, rather, I chose the objective route of starting with the domaines who already had wines chosen for BIVB’s 2014 ‘Cave Prestige‘ and then included the producers of better wines from my Petit Chablis tasting above. Okay, maybe I chose to add a couple ;-)
