The wine region of Chablis 1er Cru 'Les Fourneaux'

Premier Cru climat of 33 ha (with Morein and Côte des Prés-Girots, mentioned in 1537) in Fleys on a secondary hillside of the Serein valley: 100% Chardonnay in a warm, sun-bathed climat — south-east facing, protected from north winds. Kimmeridgian marl-limestone soils, poor and stony, rich in fossil oysters (Exogyra virgula), conferring the inimitable saline minerality of Chablis. The name evokes warmth, easy grape ripening and a solar profile in the Chablis palette.


The wine region of Burgundy

Absolute reference for great terroir wines: opulent, mineral Chardonnay in whites (chiselled Chablis, buttery Meursault, majestic Montrachet), fine and silky Pinot Noir in reds (full-bodied Gevrey, structured Pommard, delicate Volnay). Exceptional age-worthy wines with complex notes - red fruits, undergrowth, butter, hazelnut. Some lively Aligoté and light Gamay (Mâconnais). 29,500 ha, 84 tiered AOCs (Régionale, Village, 1er Cru, Grand Cru), 1,247 UNESCO Climats.

The word of the wine: Hygrometry

Humidity level of the cellar necessary for a good ageing of the wines. The recommended hygrometry is around 70% in order to guarantee a good elasticity of the corks while preserving the labels.
