Domaine Gérard Duplessis Chablis Villages

A family domaine for five generations now, Lilian is the latest vigneron of an estate created in 1895, taking over for his father Gerard in 1999.  After going to school and internships in the region (“There was no point in making Sauvignon blanc in New Zealand, I needed to know how to work Chardonnay in Burgundy” he says), Lilian has turned the domaine into one of the very few organic estates in Chablis.

Chablis, from within the village limits (Chablis can be made outside of the town), is a single vineyard of relatively young vines, about 10-15 years old.  A bottle to enjoy within three years and a true classic Chablis.
