A centuries-old family heritage

Since 1620, the Droin family has been cultivating vines in Chablis, making the Jean-Paul & Benoît Droin Estate one of the oldest in the region. Today, Benoît Droin represents the fourteenth generation of winemakers, passionately continuing an ancestral viticultural tradition.

A prestigious vineyard in the heart of Chablis

The estate spans 26 hectares, encompassing all four appellation levels of Chablis: Petit Chablis, Chablis, nine Premier Crus, and five Grand Crus. This variety of terroirs allows for the production of wines that express the richness and complexity of the region's unique Kimmeridgian soils.

Winemaking blending tradition and modernity

Benoît Droin is dedicated to honoring traditional methods while incorporating modern techniques to enhance each cuvée. Fermentations are carried out with native yeasts, and aging takes place in stainless steel tanks or French oak barrels, depending on the desired wine profile, to preserve the purity and expression of the fruit.

Wines acclaimed for their finesse and authenticity

The wines of the Jean-Paul & Benoît Droin Estate are consistently praised by critics for their precision, balance, and true reflection of the Chablis terroir. Whether it's the Premier Cru "Montée de Tonnerre" with its elegant minerality or the Grand Cru "Les Clos" offering remarkable depth and complexity, each bottle results from meticulous and passionate craftsmanship.

A commitment to sustainability and environmental respect

Aware of the importance of preserving natural heritage, the estate adopts sustainable viticultural practices, minimizing the use of chemicals and promoting biodiversity. This commitment to responsible viticulture ensures authentic wines that reflect a preserved terroir for future generations.
