The story
The house is recognized as one of the oldest in Burgundy: official records indicate it was founded in 1860. In 1984 ownership passed to Baron Patrick de Ladoucette, who initiated a program of restoration and revitalization; in 1992 the cuvée ‘Grand Régnard’ was launched, a selection of the estate’s finest vineyard parcels. The historic cellars are located in the center of Chablis.
Production philosophy
Winemaking aims to marry respect for tradition with modern technical interventions: meticulous attention is given to the selection of crus and to expressing the territorial character of the vineyards, with a measured use of wood and cellar practices to enhance finesse and elegance.
Terroir and vineyards
