In 2013, Édouard and Eleni took over a small piece of Edouard's family domaine (Domaine Vocoret & Fils) not long after marrying one another. With just 3.3 hectares to start, their vision was clear: a more artisanal, sustainable approach, focused on farming. Making single-site wines that highlight the individuality of each plot through the same thoughtful, minimalist winemaking. Their small holdings allowed them to know every vine by heart, and together they brought a passion and energy that marked a new generation in Chablis. The medium bodied Bas de Chapelot comes from a parcel just below the Premier Cru site Montée de Tonnerre. It is the Vocoret's only parcel on the right side of the river bank, and the vines are now 40 years old. The wine is steely, chalky, and loaded with flavors of citrus juice and crushed stones. 12.5% ABV Show more
