Fairly restrained on the nose, savoury herbs and citrus on the palate. Well balanced with a suggestion of “hot stone” minerality.
Vineyards are in the Hautes Côtes, at the top of the slopes just above Domaine de la Motte’s Chablis classified plots and so achieve good ripeness. The soil is Portlandian, which is less chalky than Kimmeridgian, and typically produces wines which are less mineral and more fruity, well suited to earlier drinking. Having said that, Motte’s wine has real finesse with good fruit character – very much their house style. Cool-fermented in stainless steel, malolactic fermentation is also in stainless steel and the wine is unoaked.

Our Chablis are located on the right bank of the Serein. The soil is clay-limestone (Kimmeridgien). In its Chablis, the Gautheron estate seeks a balance between fruit and minerality.
Very beautiful pale gold color with soft green reflections. The nose is delicious, pure, floral and fresh. First of all, it favors flowers, then it gives us notes of peaches and apricots, and finally we discover the minerality. The palate is delicate and balanced. It combines maturity, elegance and freshness, supported in the end by a mineral touch.
MAN, SOIL, PLANT …
“Today we are aware of the major role we play in biological balance and respect for nature. ”
The Gautheron estate is proud of the land it inherited from its ancestors and wishes to save it for future generations.
The vineyard has now gone beyond the simple stage of reasoned pest management since in 2009, 3 hectares of the total surface were cultivated in organic farming.
Currently, we do not have the technical means to transform all of our production into organic farming.
Here are the main guidelines of the estate with the aim of respecting the environment and expressing the terroir:
Reduction in the dose of phytosanitary products.
Improvement of soil structure and bearing capacity.
Removal of weedkillers in favor of plowing or grassing.
Regulating the vigor of the vine with the help of soil analysis, shoots and petioles.
Limitation of yields by carrying out prophylactic control: disbudding (one or two passages per year) and green harvest (if necessary) to limit yields.
Dynamization of microbial life.
Stimulation of the vine’s self-defense (use of a decoction of nettles and horsetails in particular)
Since 1987, we have been harvesting mechanically to benefit from greater flexibility of intervention. Only a few plots, mainly old vines, are harvested manually.
The most important being the quality.
