"One of Piuze's finest lieu-dit bottling this year, as is reliably the case, is the 2022 Chablis La Grande Vallée, sourced from climat Les Pargues. Delivering aromas of pear, white flowers, toasted hazelnuts and oyster jus, it's medium to full-bodied, bright and satiny, with a layered core of fruit and a saline finish."

"The 2022 Chablis La Grande Vallée has a very attractive bouquet with scents of white peach, almond and tangerine hints. The clarity of the aromatics is impressive at this level. The palate is well-defined with sappy citrus fruit and pear and orange rind, fanning out with a sense of confidence on the finish. Excellent."
