1995 Chablis 1er Cru Séchet, René et Vincent Dauvissat:
At 18 years of age, this Chablis Premier Cru is sublime! A bright golden hue. Mature bouquet.....expressive and seductive.....with flavours of honey, acacia, dried apricot, mirabelle, and notes of smoke and liquorice lingering on the spicy finish. Viscous with age, but still retaining a superb degree of acidity to keep the wine nicely balanced. This will be perfect with a slab of foie gras, or grilled langoustines with butter and tarragon......sadly we have cold roast chicken tonight! What a discovery! And who said that Premier Cru could not age! 18/20
