Producer

Producer

The Preuses vineyard is a true gem of Chablis, situated on south-facing slopes that benefit from excellent sun exposure. The soils, composed of limestone and clay, impart a characteristic minerality to the wines. The vines, some several decades old, are cultivated with care, resulting in a limited but high-quality production. This unique terroir, combined with a continental climate, allows for optimal ripening of the grapes, essential for the production of this grand cru.

Owner and history

Jean and Sébastien Dauvissat, representing the fourth generation, perpetuate the family legacy with passion and dedication. Their approach is characterized by a desire to respect the terroir while integrating modern techniques. They are fully involved in every aspect of production, from vine cultivation to winemaking, thus preserving the authenticity and integrity of their wines. Their commitment to quality and innovation has allowed the estate to secure a prominent place among the leading names of Chablis.

Vinification and aging

Winemaking at Domaine Jean et Sébastien Dauvissat is steeped in tradition. After a carefully selected, hand-harvested grape, the fruit is gently pressed. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks to preserve its purity, followed by aging on fine lees in oak barrels, some of which are new. This process imparts complexity and roundness to the wine, while respecting the terroir's identity. The estate's team oversees every step, ensuring a wine of great finesse and excellent aging potential.
