With 18 hectares planted in the appellation Chablis Premier Cru Fourchaume, DURUP estate is a major producer of this appellation.

The Chablis 1er Cru Fourchaume vinyeard is mainly found in the commune of Maligny and located in well-known places such as l’Ardillier, la Grande Côte, Bois Seguin and l’Homme Mort.

The exposition is West-oriented. However, some parcels are looking to the South and are generally located in small valleys with a microclimate allowing the concentration and the richness.

The wine produced in this appellation is certainly the rounder of all the 1er crus produced in the Chablis vineyard. It also has a good structure typical of the Premiers Crus.

The Chablis Premier Cru Fourchaume is the most famous and the most commercial one of the Premiers Crus of Chablis, due first to its surface (130 hectares among the 850 hectares of Premiers Crus) and second to its proximity to Grands Cru vineyards.

This Chablis Premier Cru provides the perfect match to fishes served with white butter or with cream.

Wine producer from father to son since 1560, our estate is the largest private estate of Chablis with 207 hectares.

Far back in time, there was always a member of Durup family at Maligny which is our village, our roots.

Thanks to his father and his grandfather; Jean Durup, my father; has always heard about the best plots of Chablis, which were in production before the phylloxera and which were abandoned after. He decided to buy these plots of lands at the end of the sixties. He only had 2 hectares under vine at this time.

Vineyards are located on not less than eleven of the twenty villages that counts Chablis appellations.

As a result, there is a very good representativity of the Chablis terroirs through our wines.

The vines are rooted one the steepest slopes, the hardest to work but the most qualitative one.

The land is clay-calcareous where the Chablisian minerality expression is at its best – as well for Petit Chablis, Chablis and Chablis Premier Cru – thanks to the Kimmeridgian and Portlandian subsoil.

We vinify our wine on a pure Chablisian tradition, in tank, without oak, to preserve this pure minerality.

Numerous 5-star hotels and Michelin-star restaurants in France and in the world have our wines on their list. Tasters appreciate them for their freshness and for their intensity.
