Domaine Gueguen is widely regarded as an up and coming star of the region. Céline and Frédéric Gueguen both worked for large wine estates in Chablis for 15 years before setting up their own domaine which today consists of 35 parcels of vines spread across 23 hectares now under organic conversion. The winery was established in 2013 in the hamlet of Préhy, just 7 km southwest of Chablis itself. They specialise in fresh, mineral unoaked expression of Chablis.
The Grand Cru Bougros is located at the north-western tip of the Grands Crus, on a south-east facing Kimmeridgian limestone slope. The vines are nearly 50 years old and worked organically. The wine is vinified in satinless steel tank with natural yeasts, then aged on fine lees until the April following harvest
Powerful and structured, with concentrated pear, apple and wet stone notes which broaden on the palate to reveal subtle hints of honeysuckle and beeswax. Intense and long, this top quality unoaked Chardonnay will comfortably age for 8 years or more
