Reviews 93 points Burghound "A slightly more elegant nose combines an abundance of citrus elements with those of shellfish, tidal pool and subtle quinine nuances. There is impressive power to the intense, solidly concentrated and almost opulent flavors that exhibit very fine length on the bone-dry and markedly firm finale. (AM)"

About Laurent Tribut
Laurent Tribut, a rising star in the Burgundy wine scene, is making waves with his exceptional wines that showcase the true essence of Chablis. As the son-in-law of René Dauvissat, Laurent joined the esteemed winemaking tradition of the Dauvissat family. Today, he continues to carry the torch, crafting wines of consistently high quality that captivate the senses.
Situated in the picturesque village of Poinchy, just outside Chablis, Laurent operates a small family business, meticulously tending to his 5 hectares of vineyards. His vineyard holdings include prized parcels in the premier crus of Beauroy, Côte de Lechet, and Montmains, covering a total area of 5.2 hectares. The vineyards are meticulously managed, with yields deliberately restricted to ensure optimal fruit quality. The grapes are hand-harvested, showcasing Laurent's dedication to preserving the fruit's integrity.
Laurent's winemaking approach is rooted in tradition and respect for the land. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled enameled tanks, allowing for precise control over the process. Following fermentation, the wines are aged in old oak barrels sourced from a mix of reputable oak forests, including Allier, Vosges, and Chatillons. This judicious use of oak adds complexity to the wines, enhancing their mineral character and lending a luxurious, unctuous texture.
Laurent's wines are characterized by their impeccable balance and pronounced minerality, a hallmark of Chablis. The village-level Chablis displays vibrant citrus fruit, spicy apple notes, and a crisp minerality that harmonize beautifully, while the premier crus reveal an added dimension of toasty richness and a burst of bright citrus flavors. These wines are a true expression of their terroir and demand time to reach their full potential, with the premier crus benefiting from 4-5 years of bottle aging.
Having recently established his own cellars in Poinchy, Laurent Tribut has established himself as a talented winemaker with a loyal following. His authentic, artisan Chablis wines are highly sought after by enthusiasts around the world, with distribution spanning Europe, Japan, and the United States. With each bottle, Laurent invites wine lovers to embark on a sensory journey through the unique and captivating terroir of Chablis.
