Domaine Courtault-Michelet, Chablis

Domaine Courtault-Michelet is located in the village of Lignorelles, a few kilometers northwest of Chablis. This tiny village sits atop a plateau, with most vineyards facing south or southwest, allowing the grapes to ripen slightly earlier than in much of the Chablis region.

The domaine was established in 2019 through the amalgamation of Domaine Jean-Claude Courtault and Domaine Stéphanie et Vincent Michelet. Today, it spans 28 hectares of vineyards across the Chablis villages of Beine, Lignorelles, Villy, and Maligny.

A standout of their portfolio is the Petit Chablis, sourced from well-positioned sites near the winery. Fermentation and aging take place in stainless steel, with the wines resting on their fine lees until the following spring, ensuring maximum structure and depth.
