Winemaker Notes
Domaine de l'Enclos Chablis Grand Cru Blanchot 2022 is a white wine that captivates with its balance and sophistication. Upon the first inhalation, scents of crisp apple and white blossoms greet the senses, followed by a citrusy hint reminiscent of lemon zest. Its mineral character is interwoven with a subtle iodine fragrance, adding layers of complexity. On the palate, it is luxuriously succulent, unfurling flavors of exotic fruits that outline its distinguished profile. This wine is a refined and precise expression of its terroir.
About Winery
East of Chablis, spanning 12.7 hectares, lies one of the most challenging French terroirs to cultivate: the Blanchot climat. Its east-southeast exposure (where the sun only reaches in the morning), steep slope, and sheltered location do not prevent it from paradoxically presenting as a warm terroir where, curiously, the grapes are late to ripen. Mastering these vineyards is no easy feat. However, the Bouchard brothers, Romain and Damien, have it in their blood. After a lifetime in this area, nothing eludes them. That is why they are capable of coaxing from this land the esteemed Domaine de l'Enclos Chablis Grand Cru Blanchot.
It is precisely in the lowest and steepest part of Blanchot where the family's chardonnay vines, converted by the Bouchard brothers to biodynamic farming, are found. The rest of the magic occurs in the limestone and marl soils dating back to the Upper Jurassic period (150 million years ago), composed of minuscule fossils and oysters. Here, since 1982, the clusters that form the essence of Domaine de l'Enclos Chablis Grand Cru Blanchot have flourished.
As in the vineyard, Domaine de l'Enclos Chablis Grand Cru Blanchot is handled with the utmost respect in the cellar, always transferring the liquid by gravity and vinifying only with the healthiest clusters that meet high quality standards. Naturally, under this philosophy, the harvest is carried out manually, selecting the grapes on a vibrating table. This will merely be the prelude to all that is yet to come: gentle pressing, spontaneous fermentation from indigenous yeasts, and aging in stainless steel and wood (stainless steel vats for Domaine de l'Enclos Chablis Grand Cru Blanchot).
A perfect balance between power and freshness, there are few places in the world like Grand Cru Blanchot. Do not miss the opportunity to taste Domaine de l'Enclos Chablis Grand Cru Blanchot. Rest assured, there will be no cause for regret.
