Description
The 2023 Domaine Vocoret Chablis is a lively, precision-driven white wine that beautifully showcases the hallmark crystalline clarity and minerality of the Chablis region. With bright citrus and green-fruit character, razor-sharp acidity, and a firm mineral backbone, its refreshing now yet has the structure to develop nuance with a few years of patience.
Origins & Craftsmanship
This wine comes from the independent, family-owned estate Domaine Vocoret in the Chablis AOC of Burgundy, France. The vineyards are planted on the classic Kimmeridgian limestone and marl soils that impart the signature flint and oyster-shell minerality to Chablis. For the 2023 vintage, the fruit was harvested with an emphasis on freshness and purity, and vinification was carried out with minimal interventionoften in stainless steel (or neutral vessels) with fine lees contact to build texture while preserving the sites natural character.
