The 2024 L&C Poitout Chablis Premier Cru Vaucoupin is a refined Chardonnay from one of Chablis’ recognised Premier Cru vineyards. The nose shows lemon zest, green apple and white peach with delicate florals, crushed stone and subtle saline notes, capturing the purity and mineral character associated with the region’s limestone-rich soils.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied and precise with vibrant acidity, fresh citrus and orchard fruit supported by a firm mineral backbone. Lemon and green apple are joined by subtle chalky and saline notes, giving the wine excellent tension and length. The finish is dry, focused and persistent, with the additional concentration expected from Premier Cru Chablis.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for Chablis drinkers who enjoy structured Chardonnay with bright acidity, citrus freshness and pronounced minerality. Enjoy now for its youthful precision or cellar over the next several years for further complexity. Pair with oysters, scallops, grilled snapper, prawns, roast chicken or creamy seafood dishes.
