Profile

シャブリのフィエを拠点とするヴァンサン・ドーヴィサは、地域を代表する伝統主義の守護神として揺るぎない地位を築いている。収穫の機械化が進んだ時代にあっても、トップ生産者としていち早く手摘み収穫を堅持し続けてきた。醸造面においても独自のスタイルを貫き、ステンレスタンクで発酵を終えた後、翌年3月から1年間、主に古樽を用いて熟成を行う手法を支持している。総保有畑数は6つで、1.7haを所有するレ・クロとレ・プリューズの2つの特級畑を筆頭に、フォレやヴァイヨン、セシェ、モンテ・ド・トネールといった4つの一級畑を擁する。過度な新樽使用を避け、伝統的な手法を重んじるその姿勢は、シャブリの真髄を体現する造り手として高く評価されている。

History

Domaine Vincent Dauvissat is one of the two defining family estates of Chablis. The Dauvissats have made wine in the village since the late nineteenth century, and in the late 1940s a marriage linked the Dauvissats and the Raveneaus — connecting what became the twin pillars of modern Chablis. Vincent inherited the domaine from his father René and has run it ever since, maintaining an approach that changes little between generations.

Winemaking Approach

Dauvissat's method is deliberately austere and unhurried.

- Large, older oak: new oak is effectively absent; wines age in well-seasoned, large-format casks (often around 500 L), leaving the mineral character of Chablis undisguised. - Extended lees ageing: long contact with fine lees builds depth without adding weight. - Low yields: well below the Chablis average. - Minimal intervention: the estate follows lutte raisonnée — chemical inputs are kept to a minimum without formal certification.

Young Dauvissat Chablis is tight and driven by acidity and stone-mineral tension; over ten to thirty years in bottle it unfolds into something much more complex. The village-level wine frequently outperforms many producers' premier crus.

2024★★★★★Drink earlyA brutal year of frost, hail, flooding and mildew. The little fruit that survived shows taut, bracing character but quantities are catastrophic.
2023★★★★★Drink earlyA large, ripe, juicy crop with balance but softer acidity. Drink-now appeal rather than long-aging structure.
2022★★★★HoldEarly harvest in a warm year delivered fresh, lively, juicy Chablis with structure for medium-to-long aging.
2021★★★★★HoldApril frost cut yields by half. A return to cool-climate, high-acid classicism with taut, mineral-driven wines built to age.
