🏰news | features + short tasting note IN ENGLISH 【The 2022 Chaude Ecuelle Chablis Vaillons 1er Cru is a highly-rated Chablis 1er Cru from the excellent 2022 vintage, known for its freshness, minerality, and charming balance of acidity and fruit.】 This 100% Chardonnay from the Vaillons vineyard, situated on the left bank of the Serein river, offers an excellent example of Chablis characteristics: freshness, acidity, minerality, and notes of flowers and fruit. It is well-rounded and charming, with a final note of minerality on the palate and a good compromise between acidity and fruit, making it generous and lengthy. The 2022 vintage is described as fruity and attractive with a balancing juiciness, showing plenty of yellow color and rarely exotic fruit aromatics despite the warmth of the vintage. Expect lightly peachy and floral notes, a slightly plump yet firmly mineral profile, super-sappy, and good tension. Yellow citrus, sometimes mandarin-style orange fruit, are also present, with less overt salinity than the 2021 vintage. 🍴 Chinese Cantonese food pairing various types of suggestion east or west corresponding to wine cost IN ENGLISH This vibrant Chablis is a fantastic match for seafood, grilled fish, and white meats in sauces. Consider pairing it with steamed fish with ginger and spring onion, pan-fried scallops, or a creamy chicken dish. It also works beautifully with shellfish, rich fish like salmon or tuna, and mild, soft cheeses. 🥂 fit for event suggestion IN ENGLISH Ideal for a summer lunch, a seafood feast, or as an elegant aperitif. Its fresh and approachable style makes it perfect for casual gatherings or a sophisticated dinner. The 2022 vintage is delicious now, but has enough structure to benefit from another year or two of aging.
