Domaine de la Meulière is a family estate dating back to 1779 (9 generations!). Today it is operated by brothers Nicolas and Vincent Laroche. It is located in the village of Fleys, on the right bank of the Serein river, 4 km from Chablis. The property extends over 25 hectares. The geology there is characterized by clay-limestone soils of the Kimmeridgian type. The alchemy of this terroir with the Chardonnay grape gives the wines minerality, power, floral and fruity aromas. They have 34 vineyard plots spread over the communes of Béru, Chablis, Chichée, Fontenay and Fleys. The average age of the vines is 32 years.
The domain is certified in High Environmental Value level 3 and adheres to the national confederation of Independent Winegrowers which ensured that each stage of production is carried out by the estate itself, from the cultivation, harvesting, vinification, bottling and marketing of the wine. They practice a reasoned, sustainable approach to viticulture through soil biodiversity, preserving existing resources, seeking alternative solutions all in the interest of reducing their environmental impact.
