The 2023 Séguinot-Bordet Chablis Grand Cru Vaudésir is a distinguished Chardonnay from one of Chablis’ most celebrated Grand Cru vineyards. Produced by the family-owned Séguinot-Bordet estate, Vaudésir is renowned for its combination of richness, elegance and aromatic complexity. Its sheltered amphitheatre-like position and Kimmeridgian limestone soils produce wines of exceptional depth and finesse, making it one of the most sought-after sites in Chablis.
The nose reveals aromas of lemon curd, white peach and ripe citrus layered with white flowers, oyster shell and subtle flinty notes. The palate is concentrated yet beautifully refined, with vibrant citrus and stone fruit flavours supported by bright acidity and a powerful mineral backbone. Rich and textured without sacrificing freshness, it finishes long and seamless with remarkable precision, saline complexity and Grand Cru pedigree.
Ben’s Recommendation:
A superb Grand Cru Chablis that combines power, elegance and exceptional ageing potential. Its depth and mineral precision make it an outstanding match for lobster, scallops, turbot, oysters and refined seafood dishes. Enjoy from 2027 onwards or cellar through 2040+ as it develops greater complexity, texture and the hallmark savoury nuances of mature Grand Cru Chablis.
