The deeper clay soils of this vineyard often excel in warmer years, and the 2022 Chablis 1er Cru Butteaux showcases this beautifully. It opens with aromas of dried white flowers, peach, citrus oil, and fresh-baked bread, followed by a medium to full-bodied, satiny palate that balances richness with lively tension, ending in a saline, mouthwatering finish. Quebec-born Patrick Piuze, who launched his Chablis maison after working with Jean-Marie Guffens and Brocard, has crafted a remarkable 2022 lineup. His wines, known for their rich texture despite his early harvest approach, are made from handpicked grapes, firmly pressed, and fermented in a mix of used barrels and stainless steel for a brief sur lie élevage, emphasizing freshness and energy. These wines are elegant yet distinct, each reflecting its site. For those interested in Chablis AOC diversity, Piuze offers a range of village-level and lieu-dit bottlings that highlight the breadth of this appellation.
