The Story
Simonnet-Febvre remains one of the oldest and most traditional Chablis producers in the region. As well as producing top-quality Grand Cru and Premier Cru Chablis, it makes regional wines such as Côte d'Auxerre, Irancy and Epineuil.
Situated near Tonnerre, the vineyard is on a steep hill with a south-east exposure and, protected from the cold winds coming from the 'plateau de Langres'. This particularly good aspect creates a microclimate that produces high-quality wines.
