Appellation - Chablis 1er Cru
Vineyard
The grapes come from a 2.77-hectare vineyard in an enclosed and wooded valley west of the town of Chablis. This creates an extremely cool terroir. The soil originates from the Kimmeridgian slopes. The steep slopes, which rise to 40%, consist of a mixture of marl, clay, and limestone. The eastern orientation allows the 39-year-old vines to benefit maximally from the morning sun.
Winemaking
The grapes are hand-picked. Vinification is done entirely by gravity. The bunches are cooled upon arrival at the winery and undergo direct pressing. Fermentation is initiated by indigenous yeasts and takes place at 16-17 °C. The wine matures for 12 months in oak barrels of varying ages. Annual production is approximately 12,000 bottles.

Domaine de l'Enclos
Frankrijk · Bourgogne
Domaine de l'Enclos werd in 2016 opgericht door de broers Romain en Damien Bouchard, maar hun wijnverhaal begon al veel vroeger in het familiebedrijf. Na jaren ervaring en een eerste eigen project besloten ze hun droom waar te maken met een zelfstandig domein. Vandaag beheren ze bijna 30 hectare wijngaarden, waaronder enkele prestigieuze Grand Cru- en Premier Cru-percelen in Chablis.
