Only thing I don’t like is UPS charges an access point fee to drop off five dollars per case I would have it shipped to my apartment but you have to be present to sign for it and UPS is terrible about arranging that

2022 Domaine des Malandes 1er Cru Fourchaume (750ml)

Chardonnay from Chablis, Burgundy, France

B-21 Top Recommendation

"...the rate of improvement at this address has surpassed anything I thought possible, and this is now clearly an estate to watch closely."

- William Kelley,Wine Advocate

One of the great recent renaissance stories in Burgundy, Domaine des Malandes has enjoyed a meteoric rise in quality of late, driven by oenologist Guenole Breteaudeau and estate manager Richard Rottiers, whose own acclaimed Beaujolais domaine has propelled that region's upward trajectory through the last decade. An enviable stable of prime vineyard parcels now produces a benchmark line-up that is garnering serious attention once again. We tasted the entire line-up recently, and we can unequivocally say that these 2022s are absolutely enchanting.

Described by Neal Martin of Vinous as “lovely” and “well balanced,” the 92-point 2022 1er Cru Mont de Milieu shows the character of the growing season in its rich tropical notes and bright acidity, while the 93-point 2022 1er Cru Cote de Lechet is a classically styled, steely Chablis with crisp, vibrant fruit and a lengthy, flinty finish, dubbed a “top choice for Chablis purists” by Martin. From two of the region’s best known 1er Crus and both aged in 20% used oak, the 2022 Montmains offers fresh, pure fruit flavors with a “subtle note of wood” according to Decanter’s Andy Howard that’s “all kept in check by some lovely, direct acidity,” while the 2022 Fourchaume boasts “a rich core of fruit, good concentration and bright acids” according to Wine Advocate’s William Kelley. Two outstanding Grand Crus sourced from old vine parcels showcase the heights of the domaine's potential excellence. The WA93 “satiny and suave" Vaudesir is “a fine success," while Kelley describes the 94-point Les Clos as “deep and layered” with 15 or more years of aging ahead. Both are matured in a mix of mainly neutral large oak barrels and stainless steel and rank among Kelley’s top picks of the vintage, along with Chablis royalty Raveneau and Dauvissat.

As Martin notes, Chablis "continues to offer a slew of affordable alternatives to Cote de Beaune whites,” clearly demonstrated in these selections from Domaine des Malandes, which are easily among the region’s most undervalued gems.

Revealing notes of sweet citrus fruit, white flowers, crisp green apple and blanched almonds, the 2022 Chablis 1er Cru Fourchaume is medium to full-bodied, satiny and textural, with a rich core of fruit, good concentration and bright acids. Some 40% was matured in barrel.

92 points, William Kelley, Wine Advocate (Sep 2023)

The 2022 Chablis Fourchaume 1er Cru, half aged in stainless steel and half in used barrels, has a very enticing bouquet of yellow flowers and wet stone bursting from the glass. The palate is very well-balanced with a slightly waxy texture. The acidity is well-judged, and the finish has just the right amount of tension and mineralité. This delightful Fourchaume should drink well over the next decade, possibly longer.

92 points, Neal Martin, Vinous (Sep 2023)

This is a fresh, creamy and biscuity Chablis showing sliced almonds, peaches, apricots and biscuits on the nose. Medium-bodied, flavorful and nicely balanced. Drink now.

92 points, James Suckling (Dec 2023)
