Tasting Notes

This could be from nowhere else but Chablis with its equally cool, elegant and airy aromas of white-fleshed fruit, floral, iodine and subtle passion fruit-scanted nose. The super-sleek, refined and energetic medium weight flavors possess both ample minerality and a caressing texture, all wrapped in a slightly more complex, very dry and impressively long finale. Lovely. Sweet spot Outstanding

Score: 93

Allen Meadows, Burghound Maturity: 2027+ 10 October 2021

Cropped at a mere 34 hectoliters per hectare, the 2019 Chablis 1er Cru Vaulorent is superb, unwinding in the glass with notes of citrus oil, crisp green orchard fruit, white peach, iodine and pastry cream. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and enveloping, with racy acids and a long, iodine-inflected finish, it's the most complete premier cru in the range.

Score: 94

William Kelley, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2025-2050 05 August 2021

Lots of marl here, good for the weight of fruit and the acidity, as it keeps the, soil cooler. The nose is quite restrained and refined, but the wine starts to sing on the palate, the promised acidity along with real weight of fruit., some ripe citrus along with a bit of grenadine.

Score: 92 - 94

Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy 01 July 2020

The 2019 Chablis Vaulorent 1er Cru has a light apple blossom and orange pith nose, plus touches of chamomile in the background. The palate is well balanced with good weight and a fine, citric line of acidity. This conveys plenty of tension, leading to a taut but quite persistent finish. Lots of potential here, though I envisage it drinking earlier than other cuvées.
