Viniou Reviews
The Chablis "Cuvée Lacour Foullet" from 1980 is a distinguished white wine originating from the renowned Burgundy region of France, specifically from the Chablisien area. This wine is crafted primarily from Chardonnay grapes, known for producing wines with crisp acidity and mineral notes, reflective of the region’s unique terroir. The 1980 vintage, albeit mature, offers a complex bouquet likely characterized by honey, nuts, and a slight almond finish typical of aged Chablis wines without oak influence. Chablis is celebrated for its Kimmeridgian limestone soils, which impart a flinty minerality, complemented by the cool climate that ensures vibrant acidity. While the specific "Cuvée Lacour Foullet" producer is less documented, the area’s historical prestige is well-documented, producing wines that are a staple in French viticulture.
Pairing recommendations for this historic Chablis include classic dishes that complement its refined profile. Consider serving it with delicate seafood like oysters, scallops, or Dover sole. Its harmonious balance and texture also pair wonderfully with creamy poultry dishes and mild cheeses such as goat cheese. For a traditional touch, try a Burgundy specialty like gougères, which enhances the subtle richness and mineral structure of the wine.
For optimal enjoyment, serve this Chablis slightly chilled at around 12°C. Given its age, a light carafing may help in awakening its nuanced aromas, but be careful not to lose its delicate features. Begin the tasting by observing its colour, which may display an amber hue due to age. The nose should be approached gently, as older wines can reveal layered aromas with time. On the palate, expect a uniquely matured complexity that symbolizes the convergence of Chablis tradition and the passage of time.
