- The Fourchaume area extends from the northern slopes of the Chablis Grands Crus. It is distinguished by its power, elegance, bouquet, and length—it is classic and mineral Chablis.
The grapes were carefully selected and vinified with minimal intervention. Fermentation took place with natural yeasts for two to three weeks at 21°C in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats to showcase the characteristics of this impressive terroir. The wine was matured for 18 months in stainless steel vats, of which nine months were spent on its fine lees to gain texture, weight, and complexity.
Fourchaume is distinguished by its complexity, elegance, aromatic floral bouquet, and length—it is a classic, flinty Chablis, textured and richly flavoured.

| Winery | Fourchaume is a 1er Cru vineyard in Chablis. This vineyard has a similar exposure to the Chablis Grand Cru vineyards across the Fontenay Valley, to which Fourchaume wines are often compared. The grapes come from a parcel which includes some 60-year-old vines. The double Guyot-trained vines are planted at a density of 5,700 vines per hectare, yielding a maximum of 55 hectolitres per hectare. The soils are made up of Kimmeridgian, rich in clay and limestone with fossilised sea shells, and are renowned for producing fine wines with mineral characteristics. Domaine Jean Goulley’s vineyard is certified organic. |
