FEATURES
🏰 Vocoret's 2019 Chablis Les Butteaux 1er Cru is a fantastic example from a vintage that produced rich yet balanced white Burgundies with excellent aging potential. The 2019 Chablis vintage is noted for its concentration, purity, and classic mineral character, making this Les Butteaux a compelling Premier Cru. Expect a brilliant pale gold color, offering intense aromas of green apple, lemon, wet stones, and a hint of white flowers. The palate is crisp and precise, with a powerful mineral drive, refreshing acidity, and a long, saline finish that truly expresses its terroir.
🍴 This vibrant Chablis is an ideal pairing for fresh oysters, grilled white fish, seafood platters, or goat cheese. It also complements delicate sushi and sashimi, or a light vegetable tempura. For a local touch, try it with steamed scallops with vermicelli and garlic.
🥂 Perfect for a sophisticated seafood dinner, a summer garden party, or as an elegant aperitif to showcase the best of Chablis.
