‘Situated halfway between Paris and Beaune, Chablis is the golden gateway to the wines of Burgundy. The 5,500
hectare vineyard of predominantly ‘Kimmeridgian’ soil which gives the terroir its minerality, finesse, and incomparable
crystalline tonality , lies on both banks of the river Serein and includes nearly Twenty villages.
Founded in 1923 under the leadership of Abbé Balitrand, a number of Chablis winemakers decided to join forces
and together they created a cooperative winery in the heart of the Chablis vineyard in Burgundy. Until the mid
1950s, the members of the cooperative delivered their production to La Chablisienne, which was then responsible
for creating the assemblages and for sales, however, La Chablisienne aspired to create the best representation
of Chablis from their selection of iconic vineyards and create a style of its own. So it was decided that the harvest
would be delivered in the form of must with a clear direction of parcel management to provide total control over the
winemaking processes and ensure the best wines possible indicative of their site and vintage.
La Chablisienne, in true pioneer spirit, has never ceased to fine tune its style through meticulous work to create
wines which constantly improve with the passage of time’.
