The 2024 Séguinot-Bordet Chablis Vieilles Vignes is a beautifully concentrated expression of Chablis sourced from mature Chardonnay vines planted on the region’s renowned Kimmeridgian limestone soils. Produced by the family-owned Séguinot-Bordet estate, the old vines contribute additional depth, texture and complexity while preserving the freshness and mineral purity that define classic Chablis. The result is a wine that offers greater richness than the estate’s traditional Chablis without sacrificing elegance or precision.
The nose reveals aromas of lemon zest, green apple and white peach alongside hints of white flowers, oyster shell and wet stone. The palate is vibrant yet beautifully textured, with layers of citrus and orchard fruit supported by crisp acidity and a pronounced mineral backbone. Concentrated and refined, it finishes long, saline and refreshingly pure with impressive depth and persistence.
Ben’s Recommendation:
A superb old-vine Chablis that combines richness, freshness and classic terroir expression. Its mineral precision and extra concentration make it a perfect match for oysters, scallops, grilled fish, lobster and creamy seafood dishes. Enjoy now through 2032 while its vibrant fruit, texture and chalky minerality are in perfect balance.
