2023 Eleni & Edouard Vocoret, Chablis, 1er Cru Les Forets

Eleni and Edouard Vocoret established their domaine in 2013, drawing on Edouard’s generational history in the village of Chablis to build a project focused on meticulous, hands-on farming. This bottling is made from Chardonnay grown in the Kimmeridgian limestone soils of the Les Forêts premier cru, a site known for its cool exposure and ability to yield structured fruit. The wine displays a taut, saline minerality alongside bright notes of lemon and crushed stone, balanced by a fine, integrated texture. The 2023 vintage provided healthy, generous yields, resulting in an accessible expression that maintains the domaine's signature tension and precision. With its clean acidity and clear sense of place, this wine is balanced for current enjoyment but possesses the structural integrity to evolve further in the cellar.
