Thomas Pico Domaine Pattes Loup Chablis Vent d'Ange, Burgundy, France 2022
“Vent d’Ange” 2022 is a compelling expression of artisanal Chablis from one of the region’s most acclaimed vignerons. Thomas Pico farms organically with meticulous attention to vineyard health, producing wines that emphasize texture, purity, and the unmistakable minerality of Chablis. Sourced from limestone-rich soils and fermented with native yeasts, “Vent d’Ange” offers expressive aromas of lemon zest, green apple, white peach, white flowers, and wet stone, complemented by subtle notes of hazelnut and flint from careful élevage. The palate is beautifully layered, combining vibrant acidity with impressive depth and a silky, almost Burgundian texture. Rather than the austere style often associated with Chablis, this wine delivers both richness and precision, finishing with a long, saline, chalk-driven persistence. A captivating bottle that bridges classic Chablis minerality with the complexity and finesse of top white Burgundy.
