La Chablisienne - Les Preuses Grand Cru 2013
89/100
Robert Parker
“The 2013 Chablis Grand Cru Les Preuses is medium-bodied and elegantly balanced; the acidity is a bit low, but the harmony on the finish is commendable. There’s an ‘easy-drinking’ quality to this Grand Cru that goes down smoothly.” (Wine Advocate 2015 – Robert Parker)

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2020 guide): 2*Stars (A solid, recommendable wine, though slightly more consistent and uniform than the previous vintage)
About the estate:
Chablis’s leading producer consistently delivers a faithful interpretation of the appellation, thanks to the precise and meticulous work of winemaker Vincent Bartement. As always, the wines are released with a one-vintage delay; this year’s release is the 2016 vintage—a complicated year, but one in which the Mont-de-Milieu terroir fared very well. Other terroirs that the winery usually handles well taste a little less impressive this time around—let’s wait for the 2017s!

Rated Estate (2020 Guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking, and as such, all the estates listed here—even those without a star—represent, in our view, the pinnacle of French winemaking.)
About the estate:
The largest producer of Chablis ranks among France’s top cooperatives, demonstrating equal skill in both business and winemaking. Among the many vintages produced, it can be difficult to choose, but all the wines now benefit from flawless technical expertise in pressing and aging on lees. The standout specialties include the consistently excellent Chablis Vieilles Vignes and the Premiers Crus in heavy bottles, which rival the finest wines from private estates—not to mention the famous Grand Cru Château Grenouilles, which should not be drunk too young! The entry-level wines have improved significantly and have shed the reductive notes that once characterized them. La Chablisienne is in fine form!
