Regnard "Grand Regnard" Chablis 2024
(Burgundy, France)

About the Winery:
Régnard, one of the oldest and most prestigious houses in Chablis, was founded by Zéphir Régnard in 1860. In 1984, Baron Patrick de Ladoucette, of Sancerre fame,  purchased Régnard and has perpetuated the style and tradition of the wines. Régnard was strictly a négociant operation until it purchased 10 ha of vineyards in 1989. Respectful of tradition, Régnard continues to offer a complete range of Chablis wines, including Grands Crus, Premiers Crus, Chablis and Petit Chablis.

About this Wine:
Grand Régnard is made from the vines of the Chablis appellation area, planted on the best exposed slopes with Kimmeridgian soils that are made up of shell limestone and clay. Each year, this cuvée produces a beautifully fruity, round and elegant wine typical of a young Chablis. Made in the classical style, even the bottle for this wine dates from the original glass bottles used in the Chablis region back in the seventeenth century!

Technical Details:
Made from 100% Chardonnay, four different types of yeast are used for fermentation, each bringing a specific character to the wine. This enables the Régnard team to achieve great complexity in its wines. Each tank receives cultural yeast to start the fermentation. For 6 to 8 months months, the wine ages in 100% stainless steels vats. The wine is then filtered before bottling.

Tasting Notes:
Régnard Chablis Grand Régnard 2024 makes its entrance like a radiant film: the pale yellow light and green reflections in the glass are the close-ups that seize attention. Its citrus aroma—orange, lemon, and grapefruit—acts as the soundtrack, fresh and vibrant, setting the rhythm from the outset. On the palate, the creamy texture flows effortlessly, balancing body and freshness in every note, like a perfect choreography. It is a white that marries roundness and vivacity, ideal for accompanying moments that deserve pause and admiration, as if each sip tells its own story.
