Chablis 2022 Domaine de Chaude Ecuelle
The Chablis 2022 from Domaine de Chaude Ecuelle is a quintessential expression of the Chablis terroir, where Chardonnay reaches an extraordinary balance of freshness, minerality and finesse. The domaine cultivates about 20 hectares of vineyards, with vines averaging 40 years of age, planted on the iconic Kimmeridgian clay-limestone marl soils rich in marine fossils. These soils give the wine its hallmark minerality and saline character, distinguishing Chablis from all other Chardonnay-producing regions in the world.
The vineyards are spread across various hillside exposures, ensuring complexity and aromatic depth. Harvesting takes place at the ideal ripening moment, with grapes carefully vinified in stainless steel tanks. Ageing on fine lees, followed by a short period in bottle, enhances both texture and aromatic precision, preserving the varietal purity of Chardonnay while showcasing the terroir.
In the glass, the wine shines with a golden-yellow colour with green reflections. The bouquet reveals ripe white and yellow fruits, floral and herbal nuances, subtle spices and a distinctive mineral backbone. On the palate, it is vibrant and lively, marked by fresh acidity, long persistence and a refined iodized touch that enhances its savoury profile. The finish is creamy, elegant and harmonious, leaving a lasting impression.
This Chablis from Chaude Ecuelle is enjoyable in its youth for its brightness and energy but also has the capacity to age gracefully, developing greater aromatic complexity over time. It pairs beautifully with fish, shellfish, oysters, fresh cheeses, light poultry dishes or structured vegetable-based recipes.
A wine that embodies the true spirit of Chablis: mineral, elegant and timeless, offering a faithful reflection of both the terroir and the craftsmanship of Domaine de Chaude Ecuelle.
