Domaine Louis Michel Vaulorent Chablis 2022 750ml
DescriptionVaulorent stands as one of Chablis' most powerful Premier Crus, and Louis Michel's 2022 showcases this intensity through their purist lens. The combination of great terroir and minimalist winemaking creates something extraordinary.
The wine opens with intense mineral aromatics - wet stone and chalk dominate, followed by concentrated citrus and subtle floral notes. The Vaulorent site's power is evident even through Michel's restrained style. As it develops, layers emerge - green apple, fresh herbs, and that distinctive flinty character. The absence of oak allows every nuance of the terroir to shine. On the palate, the wine delivers remarkable intensity; concentrated flavors are carved by racing acidity, while the mineral backbone provides structure through the extraordinarily long finish.
This 2022 Vaulorent represents Louis Michel at their finest - powerful terroir expressed with absolute purity. The combination of a great site and perfect vintage, interpreted through their uncompromising style, creates a wine of profound character. For those seeking Premier Cru Chablis that puts terroir above all else, this bottle delivers an unforgettable expression of place.
