Chablis Grand Cru Vaudésir Drouhin Vaudon 2021

On the palate, this Vaudésir is taut and mineral, showing flavours of lemon zest, green apple, and pear wrapped in a chiselled line of acidity. Aromas of white blossom, crushed stone, and citrus oil lift from the glass, while its pale straw colour with silver-green reflections underlines the freshness of the vintage. The finish is long, precise, and saline, echoing oyster shell and floral notes.

Vaudésir, one of the most celebrated Chablis Grands Crus, lies in a sheltered amphitheatre that combines limestone soils with excellent exposure, yielding wines of aromatic delicacy and finesse. In the cooler 2021 vintage, Drouhin Vaudon has crafted a Vaudésir of notable tension and linearity, emphasising freshness and purity over weight. Elegant and finely etched, it highlights the domaine’s terroir-focused approach and the vintage’s hallmark clarity.
