Pattes Loup Chablis 2018

"Unfortunately, winemaker Thomas Pico was away when I visited his home village of Courgis. I did manage to get my mits on his 2018 Chablis Village and my word, if Pico can cram as much mineralité into this, then the mind boggles about the quality of his Premier Crus. I look forward to returning to this excellent producers on my next trip.

The 2018 Chablis Village was regrettably the only bottle that I could include from Thomas Pico in this report - but what a great Chablis Village, possibly the best you will find. Displaying wonderful focus and precision on the nose, this is intense and mineral-driven. Captivating. The palate is poised and full of energy and tension, achieving Premier Cru quality, with fantastic salinity on the finish. Pico at his best. Bravo." 92pts Neal Martin, Vinous.com
