Chablis Le Bas de Chapelot 2022 Domaine Eleni et Edouard Vocoret is a wine that simply cannot fail to impress. It masterfully combines the authenticity of Chablis with a unique winemaking approach. It’s worth noting that both Eleni and Edouard apprenticed alongside the renowned Chablis winemaker Dauvissat.
Domaine Eleni et Edouard Vocoret winery is the result of the passion of two young winemakers, Edouard and Eleni, for wine and the preservation of the Chablis heritage. Edouard, from the renowned Vocoret wine family, has a long history of producing high-quality wines with absolute respect for the environment and nature. Their paths with Eleni crossed in New Zealand, where they decided to forge their own path in the world of Chablis. They chose a small area of about 5 hectares, wisely selecting a site that also includes the Bas de Chapelot vineyard, right next to the famous Montee de Tonnerre. The unique composition of the soil, featuring the characteristic Kimmeridgian limestone, combined with the excellent sunshine, ensures ideal grape ripening and gives the wines a distinctive minerality.
One of their two wines, Chablis Le Bas de Chapelot 2022 Domaine Eleni et Edouard Vocoret, is produced from this special site. The vines, aged around 40 years, are cultivated organically, without the use of chemicals. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, and the wine is then transferred to old French oak barrels, where it remains for approximately 12 months, in contact with the lees, developing enviable structure and complexity. The minimal use of sulfites gives it a special and unique character, preserving the elements of Chablis in a more pure and natural expression.
