This wine is crafted from Chardonnay grapes grown on vines aged between 25 to 30 years, located on the prime slopes surrounding the Serein Valley, including the communes of Maligny, Villy, Chablis, and Beines. These south and west-facing slopes, combined with limestone-rich soils, make for an elegant yet sophisticated Chablis that delivers very high quality for its price.

Fermented in fiberglass and stainless steel vats to preserve its natural purity, the wine avoids barrel ageing, staying true to Chablisian tradition. The result is a Chablis that’s clear, fresh, and light with an enticing bouquet of citrus fruits, predominantly lemon, which evolves effortlessly on the palate.

The 2021 vintage, despite challenging weather conditions, drinks beautifully. It is enjoyable now, but it also has the potential to age beautifully, promising more complexity over time.

It’s a very fine expression of the region from a very respected Chablisian family.

Description

About Jean Durup Wines

The Durup family, winegrowers from father to son, have been cultivating vines in Chablis for several centuries.

Jean Durup has rebuilt the vineyard of Château de Maligny, of which his great-grandfather, Paul Gally, was the last person in charge in the last century (19th).

The Durup family’s properties have the highest proportion of well-exposed slopes, with stony soil and very steep slopes, major guarantees of the exceptional quality of the wines.

Jean Durup’s Domaine de l’Eglantière is very well known in France.

The various Chablis wines marketed under the prestigious labels “Château de Maligny” and “l’Eglantière” are all produced from the unique grape variety used in Chablis: Chardonnay, the source of excellent wines, rich in bouquet and finesse, with a beautiful green-gold color.
