Domaine Agnès & Didier Dauvissat was founded in 1986, and is based in the village of Beine at the eastern end of 1er Cru Beauroy. Agnès and Didier planted all their vineyard themselves. This amounts to around 10 ha now, made up of 3.5ha of Petit Chablis, planted partly on hard Portlandian limestone soils full of marine fossils on the plateau above Fyé, and partly on the more clayey plateau of Beines (hence the name 'Les deux Terres', 4.5 hectares of Chablis planted in the villages of Courgis and Fyé, on south-facing slopes which are the southerly continuation of the slope of the Grands Crus, and finally a 2 ha plot or 1er cru Beauroy which is above the lake slightly toward the eastern side of the middle of this Premier Cru, and exposed to the south-west. The vines are now reaching full maturity and producing what is obviously some very high-quality fruit.
Florent, Agnès and Didier's son, has now joined the domaine and seems to be something of a wine-making talent - as Neal Martin wrote in his 2019/2020 Chablis report 'Could Florent Dauvissat be the next great winemaker to bear that famous surname?'. The wines are made in completely classical way, in stainless steel and aged on the lees for 12 months.
Spring Starter Collection
There is a specific moment every year when the grey sky finally cracks, the air softens, and the heavy, brooding red wines of winter suddenly feel entirely out of place. As the evenings begin to stretch and the promise of the first al-fresco lunch becomes a reality, the social calendar inevitably starts to fill up.
To mark the change of the season, we have curated a premium 12-bottle collection designed to dust off the palate and refresh your cellar. Rather than a random assortment, we have selected twelve spectacular wines from our absolute favourite independent growers, showcasing a range of styles that represent the benchmark expressions of spring.
Starting with two sets of exceptional bubbles—because one bottle is never enough for your first spring dinner party—this case is the perfect host's secret weapon.
Highlights from the Spring Collection: Franck Bonville Blanc de Blancs Brut Grand Cru NV: The celebratory fizz. Grown across three Grand Cru Côte des Blancs villages (Avize, Oger, and Le Mesnil-sur-Oger), this beautifully balanced Champagne offers creamy, fine bubbles with notes of lemon, grapefruit, and oyster shell.
2021 Black Chalk Wild Rose: The elegant ice-breaker. From the chalk soils of Hampshire's Test Valley, this 95-point Gold Trophy-winning English sparkling rosé blends Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay. It is incredibly pure, with notes of tea roses and a long, salty mineral core.
2024 Sancerre Chavignol, Domaine Delaporte: The spring classic. The Delaporte family are masters of Sauvignon Blanc; under Matthieu Delaporte, they farm organically and keep sulphur to the barest minimum. This textured wine bursts with aromas of crushed chalk, orange blossom, and ripe citrus fruits.
2024 Valpolicella Classico, Ca' La Bionda: The bouncy red. A remarkable effort from this certified organic estate, offering a beautiful perfume of strawberries and cherries alongside a juicy, succulent palate of gently ripe, silky red fruit.
Alongside these four highlights, the 12-bottle case also includes outstanding seasonal selections like the saline Picpoul de Pinet from Domaine Reine Juliette, a bright Albariño from Adega dos Eidos, classic White Burgundy from Domaine de la Denante, and sophisticated Cru Classé Pessac-Léognan . You have endured the winter. Treat yourself to the ultimate spring starter kit and find your new seasonal favourites before everyone else loots the shelves.
