This is without doubt one of the jewels of Chablis with historicala links dating back to 1128. The estate was bought in 1968 by the Bichot family and up until 2003, was kept under the guardianship of Gerard Vullien who has worked on the estate for 30 years, ably assisted by Guenolé Bretedeau, the proud beneficiary of his great knowledge and expertise. Gerard has now retired, but Genolé is carrying on the tradition. Without exception, the wines are beautifully clean, long, and above all, typical Chablis.
Domaine de la Moutonne
A vineyard of 2.35 hectares planted by the Cistercians and allowed to be called a separate Grand Cru because of its outstanding qualities and natural unity. La Moutonne encompasses parcels from two separate Grand Cru vineyards; "Vaudesirs" and "Preuses". The wine is big, rich, complex and everything one seeks in great Chablis. Enjoyable now, it has great ageing potential up to 15 years.
