Domaine de L'Enclos Description
Romain and Damien Bouchard founded their winemaking estate only in 2016, yet they are the fourth generation of their clan to toil the classic and chalky, Kimmeridgian soils of Chablis. For decades, the family provided other winemakers with peerless Chardonnay fruit, pulled from impressive holdings in grand cru and premier cru vineyards, planted carefully by family hands. With a passion to craft Chablis wines according to “simple and natural” methods and with a good dose of “observation and patience,” the brothers—who call themselves “perfectionists”— have set a new, higher standard for the character-driven wines of Chablis.
One of Chablis’ coolest premier cru plots, ‘Vau de Vey’ sits on a very steep slope and faces east. Green apple, crushed oyster shells, tons of energy.
Tasting Notes: Aromas of lemon and lime zest, pear skin, oyster shells. Light-bodied, lacy; a cooler-climate Chablis
Wine Pairing: Grilled fish and herbs; roasted chicken; white meat; moderately aged cow or goat cheeses
