JEAN-MARC BROCARD NOW OWNS A PARCEL OF CHABLIS GRAND CRU GRENOUILLES

 

Domaine Jean-Marc Brocard now owns 32 ares of Chablis Grand Cru Grenouilles. This is the second Climat in the Chablis Grand Cru appellation belonging to the estate, which already owns parcels in Les Preuses.


At less than 10 hectares, Grenouilles is the smallest of the Climats in the Chablis Grand Cru appellation.


Situated in the heart of the  Chablis wine growing region, this family estate was established in 1973 by Jean-Marc Brocard, who has since been joined by his son Julien. It covers almost 144 hectares, 60 of which are certified organic and 40 of which are biodynamic.
