An intense, balanced Chablis 1er cru Vaucoupin of the highest class! The wine is fine and balanced. Young vines and 20% barrel aging give this Premier Cru wonderful complexity: acacia, hawthorn, honeysuckle, vanilla, then mineral and flinty notes appear on the finish. The length is remarkable. Domaine Camille et Laurent Schaller has produced a great dry white Burgundy Premier Cru that highlights the finesse and complexity of its terroir.

The Domain
Domaine Camille & Laurent Schaller is a family business based in Préhy, in the heart of the Chablis region. Laurent and his son Camille cultivate 25 acres of vineyards and, as a small winemaker, focus on quality over quantity.
They grow three grape varieties: Chardonnay, Aligoté and Pinot Noir. Their vineyards are located in the villages of Préhy, Courgis, Chablis, Poilly-sur-Serein, Chichée (Premier Cru Vaucoupin) and Beine (Premier Cru Vau de Vey).
 
The vineyards lie on Chablis' typical Kimmeridgien soil, a geological terroir consisting of a mixture of clay and limestone, rich in fossil shells. This unique soil type was formed during the Jurassic era, about 150 to 155 million years ago. This chalky soil contributes to the wines' distinct minerality and freshness, a characteristic appreciated in Chablis wines worldwide.
 
The Schaller family applies sustainable winemaking practices and tills the soil to avoid the use of herbicides. Since 2020, the estate has been certified with Haute Valeur Environnementale level 3 (HVE 3), underscoring their commitment to environmentally friendly practices.
 
Known for their freshness, finesse and pronounced minerality, Domaine Schaller's wines perfectly reflect the unique terroir of the Chablis region.
