Lighter feel - but intense. With some green fruit - some cut and bite - but there is that classic Chablis character underlying here. More savoury, more measured than the village wine - but the fruit does have a ripeness. Great bright finish. You know you're in 1er cru territory here. Classy Chablis. L&S (Nov 2022)

(from a 1.8 ha parcel that is divided roughly 50/50 between Beauroy proper and Troëmes). A slightly riper nose of citrus confit, green apple and acacia reflects none of the exoticism typically found in Beauroy. There is a fine bead of minerality on the delicious and rounder flavors that display excellent underlying tension while exhibiting notably better depth and persistence. This is also impressive and recommended. Drinking range: 2023 - 2028 Rating: 91-93 Allen Meadows, www.Burghound.com (Jan 2023)
The 2021 Chablis Beauroy 1er Cru has a taut and mineral-driven bouquet, understated at first but opening nicely with aeration. The palate has a smooth texture, slightly viscous and certainly one of the spiciest Beauroy that I have tasted from Tribut in bottle. Quite lively, fanning out nicely towards the finish. This is an excellent Beauroy that should repay maturation in bottle. Drinking range: 2024 - 2040 Rating: 92 Neal Martin, www.vinous.com (Sept 2022)
Domaine Laurent Tribut
Laurent Tribut is married to Vincent Dauvissat's sister, Marie Clotilde. When he started he made his wines in the Dauvissat cellar in Chablis, but now this small family-run domaine is based in Poinchy. Laurent has now officially retired and has now handed over to three of their four children (Solange, Adeline and Gabriel), with Solange taking the lead in the winery. With Laurent’s guidance the future here looks very bright.
With just 6 hectares the quantities are small - but the quality of all the cuvées is extraordinary. Pure, powerfully driven, classically shaped there is more than a passing similarity to the wines of his brother-in-law, the head-line grabbing Vincent Dauvissat. Buyers will enjoy these long-lived wines with some time in bottle too - they have a great ability to age and patience will pay off, we recently tasted the 1er Cru Côte de Léchet 2004 with Laurent in his cellar and it was bright, young and full of vigour - nearly 15 years on, and in 2020 the 2000 Beauroy was still in it’s prime. This is brilliant, classic Chablis.
