Histoire du domaine
The estate in question is Domaine Vincent Dauvissat, a producer of Chablis whose origins date back to the 1930s. Robert Dauvissat began bottling his own wines – rather than selling his entire harvest to wine merchants – from a one-hectare plot situated in the Les Clos and La Forest climats. In 1950, his son René and his wife Madeleine took over the estate. They gradually expanded the vineyard through the purchase and lease of plots, notably in the grands crus Les Clos and Les Preuses, as well as in the premiers crus La Forest and Séchet. Vincent Dauvissat joined his parents in the late 1970s. He took over the management of the estate when they retired in 1989. The estate has been using biodynamic methods in the vineyards since 2002. Ghislain and Étiennette Dauvissat now work alongside their father and are involved in both the management of the vineyards and the winemaking process. Some of the family’s vineyards may also be labelled as ‘Dauvissat-Camus’, Camus being the maiden name of Vincent Dauvissat’s mother.
