Otherworldly Chablis from a distant place.

The Lilian Duplessis Vaillons 2018 is perfect for your occasional bouts of wine-related wanderlust. The Vaillons is sourced from four different parcels – Minot, Epinottes, Séchet and Chatain, prior to being vinified in stainless steel. This wine spends six months in neutral oak, to add body yet preserve the wine’s slightly tropical, fruity qualities.

  • Domaine Gérard Duplessis spans five generations, and dates back to 1895; Lilian Duplessis took over for his father in 1999.
  • The Chardonnay vines thrive in Kimmeridgian Clay and Limestone soils.
  • Lilian had the opportunity to study winemaking in New Zealand and other parts of the globe, but the guy knows what he likes – and it’s Chablis.
  • Lilian barely uses any sulfur in his wines, and in the 2018 vintage no sulfur was used.

Connects with:


  • Roasted chicken.
  • Underground wine cellars.
  • This decanter.
