  The 2017 Chablis Vaulorent 1er Cru is powerful and ample, and yet it also retains gorgeous energy that is remarkable for such a rich and obviously potent wine. There is so much going on in the glass. And that is precisely what makes the Vaulorent one of the most compelling wines in the range. Aromatically intense, resonant and super-expressive, the Vaulorent has so much to give. (AG)

  Much more discreet wood more easily allows the cool floral, tidal pool and mineral reduction-suffused aromas to be appreciated. The sleek, energetic and attractively textured medium weight flavors possess a classy mouth feel that continues onto the saline, focused and rich finish. Good stuff that should age well.

  Lovely jasmine florals, oyster shell notes and chalky hints. The palate is racy with ripe fruits and an elegant saline finish.

  This has fresh, lemon and lime aromas with a gently flinty, crushed-stone undercurrent. The palate has a superbly fresh and succulent feel with such fresh and attractively ripe peach flavors, delivering a fleshy and intense finish. Drink or hold.

  Bursting with aromas of citrus blossom, honeycomb and grapefruit, it's medium to full-bodied, open-knit and sun-kissed, with less texture and less cut than the l'Homme Mort. (WK)

  This is what 2017 Chablis is all about! This wine has terrific energy and an electric feel. There is fantastic verve and tension with beautiful citrus and orchard fruit nicely framed by the perfect amount of acidity and crisp minerals. What makes a wine like this so great is the 2017 vintage in Chablis combines gorgeous fruit notes with just the right amount of acid. The Vaulorent vineyard rivals Montee de Tonnerre for the title of greatest of the 1er Cru vineyards and this is a wonderful example the heights that can be achieved in Vaulorent in a great vintage.
  Top Value! Drink from 2020 to 2030
