✨ Technical Specifications
The 2022 vintage in Chablis was defined by a warm, dry growing season that yielded exceptionally concentrated yet remarkably fresh wines. In the natural amphitheater of the Vaudésir Grand Cru climat, the Chardonnay grapes basked in optimal sunlight, resulting in a wine of profound depth and aromatic complexity. This expression captures the essence of its Kimmeridgian clay-limestone soils, rich in marine fossils, which impart a signature flinty, saline backbone. Traditionally fermented and aged in a combination of stainless steel vats and older French oak barrels, the 2022 Chablis Grand Cru Vaudésir balances luscious notes of ripe yellow peach, white flowers, and preserved lemon with a vibrant, chalky acidity that drives a long, elegant finish.
🍾 About the Producer
Nestled in the heart of northern Burgundy within the prestigious Chablis appellation, Vaudésir is celebrated as one of the most distinguished Grand Cru climats in the region. Formed in a dramatic natural amphitheater that captures both morning and afternoon sunlight, the vineyard's steep south- and southwest-facing slopes are rooted deeply in fossil-rich Kimmeridgian limestone and clay soils. Renowned vignerons working these historical parcels focus on classic, terroir-driven viticulture and precise vinification to express the unique microclimate. The resulting white wines, crafted exclusively from Chardonnay, are revered worldwide for their remarkable tension, aromatic elegance of white flowers and ripe orchard fruits, and an intensely mineral, flinty finish built for extensive aging.
