2023 Domaine Clotilde Davenne 1er Vaucoupin

品飲筆記：2023 年份的一級沃庫平呈現清新利落的第一印象，檸檬皮與青蘋果的香氣先跳出，接著是細緻的白花與明顯的燧石/濕石礦感，並帶有海鹽般的鹹味線條。口感以高亢的酸度為主軸，酒體中等偏輕，質地細緻略帶粉感，風味集中且走向俐落，收尾乾淨且餘韻持久。

酒莊介紹：Clotilde Davenne 以精細分地管理與低產量著稱，重視田間的細節與可持續栽培，目標是忠實呈現每個一級園的獨特風土。

釀造工藝：採用低干預作法，常以天然酵母發酵，結合不鏽鋼槽與舊桶以保留清新度，同時於酒泥上陳年數月並輕柔攪動（bâtonnage），帶出圓潤口感但不損失礦感的清晰度。

葡萄園環境：沃庫平位於經典的 Kimmeridgian 石灰-黏土地帶，土壤中富含貝殼化石，賦予酒款獨特的海洋礦物性與燧石香。園地多位於坡面、朝向與微氣候有利於保留高酸與香氣清晰度，且多以手工採收、嚴格選果。

飲用建議：稍微醒 20 分鐘，低溫飲用可讓礦感與鹹味更生動，最適合配生蠔、各式海鮮與清爽的檸檬調料理。

Tasting note: Bright and focused, this 2023 Premier Cru opens with brisk lemon zest, green apple and delicate white blossom, underscored by pronounced flinty, wet-stone minerality and a saline thread. On the palate it is crisp and linear: vibrant acidity drives concentrated citrus and orchard-fruit flavours, with a chalky mid-palate and a long, mineral finish.

Producer notes: Domaine Clotilde Davenne works with careful parcel selection in Chablis’ Premier Cru sites. The domaine favours low yields, sustainable viticulture and attentive cellar practices to express site-specific minerality and freshness.

Winemaking notes: Fermentation is typically carried out with native yeasts in a combination of stainless steel and older barrels to preserve clarity while adding subtle texture. The wine spends several months on fine lees with gentle bâtonnage to enhance mid-palate weight without losing its precision.

Vineyard notes: Sourced from the Vaucoupin 1er Cru, vineyards sit on classic Kimmeridgian limestone with abundant fossilized shells — the geological fingerprint that yields an unmistakable flinty, saline character. Cool climate and careful canopy work maintain high natural acidity and bright aromatics.

Serve slightly chilled and allow a short breathe (about 20 minutes) to open the aromatics. Ideal with oysters, raw shellfish and clean, citrus-driven seafood dishes.
