General Information
The Chablis Domaine de Geneves, originating from the world-famous Chablis region in Burgundy, France, is grown on Kimmeridgian soils dotted with millions of tiny oyster shells, which give the wine a unique mineral character. This dry white wine is made from 100% Chardonnay grapes, carefully harvested and subjected to strict selection to ensure the highest quality. Traditional vinification and the use of stainless steel tanks instead of oak barrels emphasize the pure, fresh flavors and the characteristic acidity of the wine.

Fun Fact
Chablis is often praised for its unique ability to reflect terroir. This is mainly due to the region’s unique soils, rich in fossilized oyster shells dating back millions of years, which contribute to the remarkable mineral character of the wine. These geological features make Chablis distinctive in the wine world.
