The 2020 Chablis 1er Cru “Vau de Vey” from Domaine Roland Lavantureux is a white wine from the prestigious Chablis terroir in Burgundy, within the Chablis 1er Cru appellation.

This wine embodies the elegance and precision of Chablis 1er Crus, with marked freshness and tension, thanks to the rich clay-limestone and Kimmeridgian soils, which impart a strong mineral expression to the wine.
