THE COMPANY

Established in 1850, this historical company of Chablis cultivates on its own 45 hectares of vineyard all situated on calcareous marl soils, rich in fossils: the Kimméridgien, which dates back to the Jurassic period The vinification is only carried out in stainless steel tanks, in order to preserve freshness and the typical characteristics of Chablis wines. Each cru has indeed its own aromatic peculiarities and even the smallest differences of terroir are recognizable in each wine. The wines of Chablis are fine and elegant and can age for many years. The domaine of Beines is a great interpreter of the tradition of this Burgundy area, thanks to the valuable work of Alain Geoffroy and his daughters Cathy and Nathalie.

Chablis

In cold climates, vineyards need exceptional conditions to perform well. Chablis is 160 km north of Beaune and is therefore closer to Champagne than the rest of Burgundy. The secret lies in the geological structure: the outcropping rock mass of the edge of a huge submerged limestone basin from Dorset, on the other side of the English Channel, gives the name Kimmeridge to this unique deposit of prehistoric oyster shells.
