The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine As understated as it is revered by critics, Domaine Famille Grossot, awarded a star by the French wine guide RVF, stands out for the precision and exceptional quality of its Chablis. Committed to organic farming, the Grossot family consistently crafts wines of the highest calibre—age-worthy gems that evolve beautifully over time. Each cuvée is a masterpiece of freshness and minerality, a true reflection of its terroir.

In 2024, the estate, like much of the region, suffered devastating losses, losing nearly its entire harvest. As a result, prices have naturally risen. Despite this, we remain steadfast in our support, renewing our offer and continuing our long-standing partnership with this exceptional domaine.
Wine From a southeast-facing terroir of white clay, the 2023 White Chablis 1er Cru Les Fourneaux captures the very essence of the appellation. Its pure, refined, and delicate style is instantly appealing, with crisp, fresh fruit, a touch of salinity, and a beautifully mineral-driven character—a true reflection of its terroir. The lively, vibrant finish enhances its elegance, making this a stunning expression of place. A favourite of the Selection Committee, rated 94/100.
Vinification Hand harvested. Light settling. Alcoholic and malolactic fermentation and 8 months' ageing, 2/3 in vats and 1/3 in oak barrels, then blending and maturing in vats. Bottled 16 months after harvest.
