Le Bas de Chapelot is chareterized by clay-rich and limestone soils, as it’s located close to the river. Wafting from the glass with a bouquet of beeswax, grapefruit zest and oyster shell, it’s medium to full-bodied, tensile and saline, with a racy spine of acidity and concluding with a persistent finish.

Bas de Chapelot comes from a 3.2 hectare parcel just below Montée de Tonnerre. It is the Vocoret's only parcel on the right side of the river bank. The soil is deep, clay and limestone, and Kimmeridgian (moyen). The vines are now 40 years old vines and due to their proximity to the riverbed are very exposed to frost.
