Chisled out of the cool climate and Kimmeridgian, the Lavantureux clan crafts non-nonsense mineral laden wines from their family Domaine founded by Roland in 1978. Sons  

With a sharp eye, natural instinct, and solid Burgundian pragmatism, Roland Lavantureux made a name for himself crafting no-nonsense Chablis that has come to be one of the most reliable of the old reliables here at Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant. Upon his completion of wine school in Beaune, Roland founded the domaine in 1978 in the town of Lignorelles, about four miles northwest of Chablis. Today, his two sons have taken over the Domaine: Arnaud in the cellars and David in the front of the house have picked up the mantl laid down by their father and run with it. From beautiful and affordable village level to spectacular Grand Crus, these wines are among my favorites year in and year out, toda we are offering our limited allocation - less than a dozen cases of all of them combined! 

Chablis region’s one-two punch and secret to its laser focused, mineral driven expression of the Chardonnay grape comes from its cool northern location and the base of Kimmeridgian soils, a near perfect terroir of limestone and clay interspersed with tiny, fossilized oysters. 

“The Lavantureux wines display show-stopping nerve, to be enjoyed as easily before dinner as they are with a piece of grilled fish or oysters-on-the-half-shell. These wines drink as honestly as the people who make them; they are staff favorites year after year.” Kermit Lynch, Importer
