Notes from Grand Cru Selections:

"Édouard and Eleni first met during the 2010 harvest in New Zealand. Not long after, they married and returned to Chablis to take over a small piece of Edouard's family domaine  and establish their own project in 2013. With just 3.3 hectares to start, their vision was clear: a more artisanal, sustainable approach, focused on farming. Making single-site wines that highlight the individuality of each plot through the same thoughtful, minimalist winemaking. Their small holdings allowed them to know every vine by heart...in 2023, Édouard inherited an additional 5 hectares of impressive real estate —including Butteaux and new 1er crus Forêts, Séchet, Châtaigne, and Montée de Tonnerre, along with the Grands Crus Blanchots, Valmur, and Les Clos—bringing the domaine to roughly 10 hectares. 

With two plots totaling 81 ares added in 2023, this iconic right-bank 1er Cru is renowned for its power and longevity. Structured and age-worthy, Montée de Tonnerre is often considered the peer of Chablis Grand Cru."

Jasper Morris:

"T he new holdings are in Pied d’Aloue and Chapelots, though not enough of the latter to make separately. Pale lemon colour. The nose suggests weight, a little more forthcoming than Forêts. This one opens out beautifully on the palate, refined yellow fruit, all nicely harnessed and with fine length. Some honeysuckle and melon which is fine ."
