2023 Sebastien Dampt Cote de Lechet 1er Cru Chablis | Pre-Arrival

2025 December
Indent (Pre-arrival) Offer:

"Beautifully finely etched with great fruit, acidity and delineation."
17/20 Points - Jancis Robinson

94 Points, Tim Atkin MW

90-91 Points, Allen Meadows, Burghound.com
Not yet in bottle. A mix of young and old vines. A touch more colour and rather fuller on the nose. A lactic note takes it away from the classic white fruit style of Léchet. An interesting thickness of texture. Some salinity to finish. I suspect the stage it is at, on its finings, makes the Côte de Léchet more difficult to read. 

Background Information:
Sébastien Dampt is a rising star of Chablis and a new producer to the BBR fold. He is part of a dynasty that has been making wine in the region for over 150 years. Having studied in Beaune and gained experience around France, he returned to work for the family domaine in 2005 alongside father Daniel and brother Vincent.

In 2007 he took 7 ha of family land and created an estate in his own name based in Milly to west of Chablis. Split 50/50 between Village wine and Premier Cru, the wines are all vinified and raised in stainless steel to preserve the classic, steely appeal much loved of this venerable region.
