If you find a remarkable similarity in the style and structure of Laurent Tribut's wines with those of Vincent Dauvissat, it is not a coincidence. The link is Vincent's sister, Marie-Clotilde who happens to be married to Laurent. Together they make very small amounts of wines from some distinct terroirs.

The cellar and the vineyards are different, but the approach is very much the same as you find up the street at the Dauvissats. If it isn't broken, why fix it! These days Laurent and Marie-Clotilde's daughter Solange has begun taking over much of the wine making, and she is continuing the tradition of excellence that her family is now famous for.

Professional Reviews

Burghound

BH 93
"There is a plethora of Chablis typicity to the ripe aromas of pear, apple and lemon-lime. The caressing, round and nicely intense medium-weight flavors possess solid depth and persistence on the attractively dry and stunningly long finish that is supported by lemon-tinged acidity. This striking effort is presently extremely compact and very much built-to-age. In a word, excellent."

Robert Parker

RP 93
"Aromas of pear, white flowers, fresh bread, almonds and mint introduce the 2020 Chablis 1er Cru Côte de Léchet, a medium to full-bodied, satiny and precise wine that's deep and concentrated, with chalky structure and brisk acids. Laurent Tribut's three daughters—Solange, Adéline, and Gabriel—are well-ensconced at this important eight-hectare domaine; and their 2020s, which had just been racked to barrel after their fermentation in tank, bear all the hallmarks of a lovely vintage, somewhat reminiscent at this early stage of the Tributs' 2017s. As I've written before, moderate yields, hand-harvesting at full maturity, fermentation in enameled steel and élevage in used wood on the lees are the rudiments of the approach here—an approach familiar to followers of the wines of Laurent Tribut's brother-in-law, Vincent Dauvissat, in whose cellars Tribut's wines were once produced. Farming is de facto organic but not certified as such. And none of that seems to have changed with the new generation at the helm." -Robert Parker

Focus On: Burgundy

Burgundy has long been the world's most famous wine region. But, underneath all the prestige, this region can be hard to get to know.

While Burgundy offers many great trophies from top producers in well-known villages like Vosne Romanee and Puligny Montrachet, it also offers excellent values to anyone willing to explore beyond the famous names. Our collection– one of the largest in the U.S. – has plenty of both!

From the very basics of Burgundy's regions and wines to the specific terroirs of individual single vineyards--
everything you need to know about Bourgogne is just a click away!
