About this tour
Walk through Domaine Clotilde Davenne's vineyard slopes while learning how Chablis terroir shapes the wines, then explore the winery and taste several appellations. This 90-minute visit combines serious viticulture talk with a relaxed tasting of Chablis, Saint-Bris, Irancy, Bourgognes and Crémant, hosted in a working estate rather than a polished tasting room.
Highlights
- Vineyard walk with terroir and soil explanation
- Behind-the-scenes winery tour
- Taste five regional appellations side-by-side
- Learn vintage variation from owner's perspective
- Authentic family-run domaine, not commercial facility
What to expect
You'll start in the vines themselves, getting a feel for the slopes and aspect that define Chablis. Expect straightforward chat about geology and how weather swings affect each vintage—no flowery marketing speak. Then you'll move through the working winery to see how they handle the fruit. The tasting portion lets you sample from their portfolio; you choose which wines interest you and the team guides you through them. Bring comfortable walking shoes for the vineyard section, which involves uneven ground.
