John Gilman 92 pts! Domaine Servin has parcels of vines in all six lieux à dits that can be bottled as Vaillons. In 2024, they harvested all of them on the same day, as the crop here was down by two-thirds, and vinified everything together from the outset. This is an entirely tank-raised cuvée and the 2024 is going to be lovely, as it delivers a bright and complex bouquet of tart orange, pink grapefruit, a lovely foundation of chalky minerality, beeswax and a topnote of lemon peel. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and complex, with a fine core of fruit, beautiful soil signature, zesty acids and impeccable balance on the long, precise and vibrant finish. A fine example. (Drink between 2030 - 2065)
