2023 Chablis Premier Cru Vaulorent Brocard

A Chablis Premier Cru from the Vaulorent vineyard, made by Jean-Marc Brocard from a small organic parcel of vines about 45 years old facing south and south-east. The grapes are pressed on arrival and fermented with their own yeasts, then aged 14 months sur lie in large French foudres without stirring. Bottling follows natural settling and light filtration if necessary. The wine is golden with a silver sheen. The nose offers wild white flowers, ripe fruit such as white peach, grape and lychee, and roasted nuts. The palate shows more exotic notes of mango, passion fruit and acacia honey, ending elegantly and with fine minerality.
