Louis Michel Premier Cru Vaulorent 2022

INCREDIBLE BOUQUET OF WHITE FRUITS AND STONE, WITH A DELICACY ONLY THE BEST OF CHABLIS CAN DELIVER.

 

"Mid lemon yellow. The bouquet has a soft allure, flowers and ripe white apples, the aromatics of spring giving way to early summer. A fine rich juicy white fruit, with a long aftertaste. Still mostly on the apples. Drink from 2027-2035." - Jasper Morris

 

"The 2022 Chablis Vaulorent 1er Cru has a perfumed bouquet of yellow flowers intermixed with crushed limestone and light flinty scents. This is very well-defined and focused. The palate is well-balanced with a fine bead of acidity, harmonious and elegant, with a dab of lemongrass towards the lightly pithy, persistent finish. Surprisingly classic in style, given the warmth of the growing season. Excellent." - Vinous

 

 

"Michel notes that his plot of Vaulorent lies on relatively thick clay soils; certainly plenty of force and substance is in evidence. A very complete example of this top premier cru, with excellent acidity, crispness and tension. Plenty of concentration and ageing potential. A marked flinty edge to finish." - Decanter
