The Domaine was founded in 1955 in the tiny village of Milly, a six-minute drive from "downtown" Chablis, by Jean Dauvissat. Fabien Dauvissat is the grandson of Jean and the current owner and winemaker for the Domaine. There is no relation to Vincent Dauvissat - there are five different Dauvissat families, with four producing and selling wine. Fabien took over for his father in 2009, who was selling wine in bulk at the time. He had two specific goals when he took over the Domaine. The first was to overhaul the farming from conventional to organic. The second was to rebuild the brand and expand its export markets.Production: Today, the Domaine owns 22 HA in Chablis over seven communes and 53 different parcels. They believe that their vines present a comprehensive reflection of the appellation with both banks of the vineyards made. They produce about 45k-60k bottles annually.
