Chablis fans seeking a great deal need look no further than these 90 plus pt. 2021 Chablis selections from Domaine Servin, "a classically styled portfolio" from an under the radar producer according to Neal Martin of Vinous, a range of ready to enjoy and cellar worthy wines well-priced for Burgundy bargain hunters to stock up on a few favorites or put together a value-packed mixed case.
Located on the outskirts of the village of Chablis, Domaine Servin is one of the oldest family run estates in the region with a history of winemaking dating back two centuries, led by 20th generation Francois Servin and his Australian-born winemaker Mark Cameron. Spanning over 35 hectares with most of the Chardonnay vines over 40 years of age, Domaine Servin's vineyards are located in some of the top terroirs across the appellation including six 1er and four Grand Crus, with even its village level cuvee sourced from a single 11 hectare parcel that is considered on par with its 1er cru neighbors Montmains and Vosgros. Described as "rich and seductively textured" by Burghound's Allen Meadows, the entry level 90 pt. 2021 Servin Les Pargues offers crisp, fresh fruit hinting of chalky minerality balanced by "racy acids and a long, saline finish" according to the Wine Advocate's William Kelley. Vinified in stainless steel with extended time on the lees, the 92 pt. 2021 Servin Vaucoupin 1er Cru is an "over performer" and "a charming classic" according to Neal Martin of Vinous, while the 92 pt. 2021 Servin Butteaux 1er Cru is "excellent" with "a saline finish that lingers," both promising to age over a decade. Two Grand Cru selections boasting remarkable longevity, Neal Martin calls the 93 pt. 2021 Servin Bougros Grand Cru "very fine" balancing pure, zesty fruit and racy acidity on a refined finish he compares to high profile estate Domaine Raveneau, while Allen Meadows of Burghound describes the 92 pt. 2021 Servin Blanchots Grand Cru as "unusually powerful," revealing rich aromatic fruit with a "balanced, clean and dry finish."
From a roller coaster 2021 Chablis vintage with limited yields, Andy Howard of Decanter recommends, "Find producers you favor and snap them up while you can," these outstanding, value-loaded 2021 Domaine Servin selections a terrific choice for White Burgundy fans seeking delicious, age worthy Chablis to stash away and enjoy for years to come. |
