Vincent Mothe
Vincent Mothe works the chalky soils of Chablis, the northernmost expression of Burgundy's Chardonnay tradition. The winery's portfolio spans the region's classification tiers: a straight Chablis, the Premier Cru 'Fourchaume', and the Grand Cru 'Bougros'. Each reflects the mineral precision that defines the appellation—wines built on acidity, salinity, and the distinctive flinty character of Kimmeridgian limestone. Wine Spectator has rated the range, with 'Bougros' reaching 92 points, underscoring the caliber of fruit and aging potential at the top tier. The 'Fourchaume' Premier Cru sits at the bridge between entry and elite, while the base Chablis offers direct access to the region's signature profile. All three are pure Chardonnay, unoaked or minimally oaked, letting terroir and vintage speak.
