William Kelley - Robert Parker Wine Advocate
The 2021 Chablis 1er Cru Vaulorent is another of the range's highlights, bursting with aromas of white flowers, sweet citrus oil, white peach and blanched almonds. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and seamless, it's concentrated and complete, with racy acids and a saline, orange blossom-inflected finish.

The 2021 Chablis Vaulorent 1er Cru is clean and precise on the nose: Granny Smiths, Alpine stream and light oyster shell scents unfold in the glass. The palate is well balanced with quite a powerful entry. More peppery in style, it gains weight towards the finish that gradually fans out. This leaves a good impression and beckons you back for another sip. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

The 2021 Chablis Vaulorent 1er Cru comes from 3.60-hectares, of course, the only Premier Cru on the same incline as the Grand Crus. The soils here are very marn. It has an energetic petrichor, slightly fumé bouquet that is very well focused. The palate is well balanced, taut and fresh with fine acidity, lemon verbena and citrus peel emerging towards the finish. Delightful, though the Montée de Tonnerre has just a little more harmony. Points: 90-92
