Drouhin Vaudon Chablis Réserve de Vaudon 2014

Chablis, Burgundy, FranceGrassy, leafy, green apple, lime aromas. Dry, light, elegant, austere style with vibrant acidity. Lime, green apple skin, peach pit, herbal, grassy flavours with saline note. Good elegance but very tight, austere finish that needs food and some time in bottle. The Réserve de Vaudon is a mix of Drouhin property fruit mostly from the Valley of Vauvillien between the Premier Crus of Montée de Tonnerre and Mont de Milieu. The soil is marine-based containing millions of tiny fossils that once laid on the seabed. The average yield at the domain is just over 55hl/ha roughly five percent below the 60hl/ha limit. The fruit is bio-dynamically grown and the fermentation and ageing is all done in stainless steel for 7 to 8 months.Tasted: 22 September 2015Tasted by: Prices:
