Description
Etienne Boileau created the Domaine du Chardonnay in 1987 with his two associates, William Nahan and Christian Simon. Together, they helped build the strong Domaine it is today, making remarkable, internationally renowned Chablis. Arnaud Nahan (William’s son) and Thomas Labille took over the Domaine in late 2018. Arnaud grew up close to the Domaine. Thomas Labille joined him as an experienced cellar master, having worked with some big names in Chablis.
The Domaine du Chardonnay operates a vineyard spanning 34.5 hectares. Only the Domaine’s harvest is carefully vinified and aged in the cellars.
Reflecting the essence of the Chablis vineyard, a blend of tradition and modernism, the vinification process is rooted in the age-old reverence for the products, grapes, the must, and the wine.
