Chablis Reserve de Vaudon AC 0.75L

The Chablis Réserve de Vaudon from Maison Joseph Drouhin shows what distinguishes northern Burgundy from all other Chardonnay regions in the world: a cool, bone-dry minerality that no warm climate can replicate.

Joseph Drouhin is one of the most traditional wine merchants of the Côte d'Or, founded in Beaune in 1880. With the Réserve de Vaudon, the house offers a Chablis that specifically reflects the terroir of the Kimmeridgian limestone – that fossil-rich subsoil of oyster shells which gives Chablis its distinctive salinity.

In the glass, it displays pale golden hues. The nose offers aromas of lemon zest, green apple, and white peach, underpinned by a clear flinty note. On the palate, lively acidity, a lean body, and a long, mineral-salty finish—typical Chablis, without heaviness.

Best served at 8–10 °C . Classic accompaniments: oysters, scallops, grilled turbot, or a young goat cheese. Also a good choice as an aperitif on warm evenings.
