90/100
Robert Parker
"Complex aromas of tangerine, oyster shell, iodine, peach and beeswax introduce the 2017 Chablis 1er Cru Vau-Ligneau, a medium- to full-bodied, satiny, elegant wine with racy acids and a delicately musky, saline finish." (Wine Advocate 2019 - William Kelley) All subtlety!

About the domain :
Henri Michaut planted the first vines in 1947 and was for many years a cooperator at La Chablisienne. Following in his footsteps, his family successfully embarked on winemaking; today managed by Adrien Michaut, the estate (HVE certified) covers more than 53 ha and has established itself as a sure bet in the Chablis region.

Very disappointed, used to Châblis, I can't find anything in this estate, nervous acid, you can't even recognize the grape variety, I don't recommend it.
