The Chablis
vineyards are amongst the oldest vineyards in France. In the 12th century,
the monks of Citeaux cultivated and carefully tended their vineyards, which
produced an agreeable nectar.
Today, at Domaine Alain Geoffroy, we continue to cherish our vines so that
they produce wines that are not just thirst-quenchers but wines that provide
everyone with pleasure. All our Chablis wines are produced on a specific
geological zone known as Kimmeridgian (Jurassic period), which is composed
of calcareous clay and oyster fossils. It is from the incredible potential
of this soil that our wine draws all its richness of fragrance and flavour,
and notably its high mineral content.
