The domaine of Jean-Marc Brocard began as just one hectare, a gift from his father-in-law when he married into a winegrowing family. He has since expanded to 180 hectares, and is widely recognised as one of Chablis leading producers.
The approach is one of minimal intervention in both vineyard and winery: cultivation is practically organic, with ploughing in place of herbicides, predators instead of pesticides, manure rather than fertiliser, and as little spraying as the grape’s health requires.
The results are pure, unadorned expressions of the great chalk slopes of Chablis.
