The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine Awarded 3 stars by the RVF Guide, Domaine Bessin Tremblay stands as one of the true icons of Chablis. Romain Tremblay has taken the reins from his parents, converting the estate to biodynamic farming while continuing to craft wines of exceptional stature. These wines are renowned for their remarkable richness and density, perfectly balanced by a commanding minerality.

Wine From a 60-are parcel, the 2022 white Chablis 1er Cru Montmains presents a fresh and mineral profile that will benefit from patient aging. This Chardonnay is floral, mouthwatering, and vibrant, with finely crafted texture around subtle flavors of yellow fruits and white peach. A delight that remains fresh and digestible!
