These grapes create remarkably authentic and diverse wines, a reflection of the perfect harmony between earth, sun, and water in the revered Burgundy region.

One of Domaine Albert Grivault's defining features is its ownership of the entire Clos des Perrières vineyard, an incredible rarity in the fragmented French wine scene.

The Clos des Perrières, Premier Cru - a 100% Chardonnay creation is the flagship wine of this domain.
