Eleni & Edouard Vocoret Chablis Le Boucheron 2022

They always had the vineyard however only bottled under their own Domaine in 2017. 0.9 hectares. Far more white clay than the other plots between the 1er Cru hills of Vaillons and Le Foret as Eleni describes to me “In between La Foret and Vaillons. Kimmeridgian with lots of white clay. Hard to work *she laughed*” North West facing. Style – good mix, very mineral. 40 years old vines. Wild fermented in steel then Elevage in barrel for 12 months of 6 to 30 year old barriques.

“Ripe yet airy and pretty aromas include those of pear, apple, ocean breeze and a hint of algae. The rich, delicious and succulent middleweight flavors are not especially dense yet possess a lovely texture all the same before terminating in a clean, markedly dry and lingering finish where a touch of austerity slowly emerges. This balanced effort should repay a few years of keeping but also drink well young.”– 88-91 – Burghound
