JEAN - PAUL & BENOIT DROIN
Jean Paul & Benoît Droin is one of the oldest producers in Chablis, with nearly 400 years of winemaking history. The estate is renowned for its extensive vineyards, including plots in five of the seven Chablis Grand Cru vineyards, the most important of which is Les Clos. The rest of the portfolio is based entirely on Chardonnay.
The estate covers some 25 hectares (62 acres) of vines. Most of this is in Premier or Grand Cru vineyards - in addition to the Grand Cru wines, Jean Paul & Benoît Droin make wine from eight Premier Cru sites, including Montmains and Fourchaume. The estate also produces Petit Chablis and Standard Chablis wines.
