The wine region of Chablis Grand Cru 'Vaudesir'

15. 4 ha Grand Cru at the heart of the Chablis hill (Yonne), 100% Chardonnay: in a small sheltered valley with a sunny south-facing slope and cooler north side — power-freshness balance is its signature. Pale gold robe, complex aromas of citrus, white fruits, flowers and flinty mineral notes. Elegant and fleshy palate with deep chalky minerality from Kimmeridgian fossil oysters.


The wine region of Burgundy

Absolute reference for great terroir wines: opulent, mineral Chardonnay in whites (chiselled Chablis, buttery Meursault, majestic Montrachet), fine and silky Pinot Noir in reds (full-bodied Gevrey, structured Pommard, delicate Volnay). Exceptional age-worthy wines with complex notes - red fruits, undergrowth, butter, hazelnut. Some lively Aligoté and light Gamay (Mâconnais). 29,500 ha, 84 tiered AOCs (Régionale, Village, 1er Cru, Grand Cru), 1,247 UNESCO Climats.

The word of the wine: Liquid

Sweet wine containing more than 50 grams of residual sugar per liter. Sweet wines are made from grapes often affected by botrytis cinerea and concentrated either by passerillage (drying of the grapes on the vine stock), or after the harvest (straw wines), or by the cold (ice wines).
