Grand Cru Vaudesir

Description

Drouhin Vaudon
Chablis Grand Cru Vaudesir

 

SOIL

    • The Kimmeridgian limestone contains millions of tiny marine fossils embedded in a kind of whitish mortar which may have been once the bottom of the sea… hundreds of million years ago.
    • This marine origin gives the wines of Chablis their unique flavor.

VITICULTURE:

    • Plantation density: 6 250 stocks/ha.
    • Pruning: double Guyot “Vallée de la Marne” (for its resistance to frost).
    • Yield: we aim for a lower yield in order to extract all possible nuances from the terroir.

VINIFICATION:

    • Supply: This wine comes from grapes harvested on some parcels of the Drouhin Family
    • Properties as well as from grapes purchased from supply partners.
    • Very slow pressing so as to respect fruit.

Aging:

    • Type: in vats.
    • Length: 7 to 8 months.

TASTING NOTE BY VÉRONIQUE BOSS-DROUHIN

    • An exquisite wine often drunk on its own as an aperitif.
    • Pure and limpid color, with a faint greenish hint.
    • On the nose, fresh aromas of flower and fruit (lemony flavors) and, at times, spicy notes of coriander.
    • On the palate: harmonious aromas bringing character and elegance.
    • The magnitude of its Grand Cru origin and the light salty notes from the Kimmeridgian soil are in evidence.
    • Remarkably long and complex persistence in the aftertaste.

SERVING:

    • Temp: 53-54°F.

Cellaring:

    • 1 to 5 years.
