The 2023 Séguinot-Bordet Chablis Grand Cru Les Preuses is a magnificent expression of one of Chablis’ most elegant and sought-after Grand Cru vineyards. Produced by the family-owned Séguinot-Bordet estate, Les Preuses is renowned for combining the power and concentration of Grand Cru Chablis with exceptional finesse and mineral precision. Planted on the region’s famed Kimmeridgian limestone soils, the vineyard consistently produces wines of remarkable purity, complexity and longevity.
The nose reveals aromas of lemon curd, white peach and citrus blossom layered with oyster shell, flint and subtle saline notes. The palate is rich yet beautifully focused, with concentrated orchard fruit supported by vibrant acidity and an intense mineral backbone. Powerful, refined and impeccably balanced, it finishes exceptionally long with layers of citrus, chalk and maritime freshness unfolding across the palate.
Ben’s Recommendation:
A world-class Chablis that showcases the elegance and pedigree of the Les Preuses Grand Cru vineyard. Its combination of richness, minerality and precision makes it a superb match for lobster, scallops, turbot, oysters and fine seafood cuisine. Enjoy from 2027 onwards or cellar through 2040+ as it develops extraordinary complexity, texture and depth.
