The 2002 Chablis Sechet sports a nose of spiced hazelnuts. Light to medium-bodied, it offers flavors reminiscent of limestone, stones, seashells, and orange zests (with no bitterness). Admirably pure, it has excellent focus and grip. Drink it over the next 4-6 years.
According to Vincent Dauvissat, an engaging, extremely bright vigneron, “After a slight push of mildew in the summer, 2002 was exceptional, everything went well, leading to what will be a memorable vintage, maybe like the 1975s, with great balance and that are always ready to give pleasure, from youth to old age.” Dauvissat began harvesting on the 23rd of September and only chaptalized (by only 2/10's of a degree) two of his many cuvees.
