The terroir of Chablis is shaped by its distinctive limestone-rich Kimmeridgian soils, which date back to the Jurassic period. These ancient soils, combined with the cool climate along the Serein River, imbue the wines with a striking minerality and bright acidity.

Recognized globally, the region was awarded Chablis Premier Cru status in 1938, cementing its reputation for producing wines of unrivaled quality and refinement.
