  • Vaillons is considered one of the archtypal, benchmark premier crus on the Left Bank producicing wines that are very classic. Lillian has 1.5 hectares across 4 parcels:  Minots, Chatains, Epinottes and Vaillonsitself with and average vine age of 60 years old. All these parcels are vinified separately then blended before bottling. Across the 1er Cru’s this wine is often seemingly the most ‘exotic’, perhaps not in terms of weight but aromatics. 

  • "The 2022 Chablis Vaillons 1er Cru was aged for 12 months in tank and 6 months in barrel (10% new). It has a lovely bouquet of yellow plum and touches of orange pith–much more generous than the 2021. The palate is well balanced with superb salinity, ample weight and tension. A subtle sour lemon note enlivens the finish. Excellent." 92 pts - Neal Martin, Vinous.com
