Domaine Grossot Chablis Premier Cru Vaucoupin 2020 Review
Run by the innovative Grossot family, this estate specializes in terroir-driven wines, with Vaucoupin’s steep, sun-drenched slopes producing wines of incredible depth and precision. Certified organic since 2015, the Grossot family focuses on hand-harvesting and gentle vinification to highlight the terroir’s vibrancy, crafting wines that balance natural density with lively acidity, making them both approachable and age-worthy.
The Chablis Premier Cru Vaucoupin comes from a steep, south-facing slope with limestone and clay soils, producing a full-bodied, mineral-driven wine with power and finesse. This is one of those truly memorable wines, fresh yet complex, offering a bouquet of crisp green apple, Meyer lemon, and wet stone with a whisper of white blossoms. Its zippy acidity and chalky minerality perfectly frame the juicy citrus and orchard fruit flavors, making it both vibrant and refined.
