If you like crisp, clean, linear, but flavoursome Chablis, tasting of citrus rind, oyster shell, minerality and salt, this 2021 Picq Chablis is for you. This wine delivers a no nonsense Chablis, no diversion, no oak, natural yeast. It is utterly delicious.
Gilbert Picq & ses Fils is a small estate of about 14ha, comprising hillside vineyards near the town of Chicée. Some of the vineyards have a lot of small stones and no clay. The resulting wines tend to be crisp, chalky, and tinglingly mineral.
This wine will easily age for ten years. Seek it out.
Score: 93/+++
