A healthy culture
Since the beginning, Jean-Marc Brocard is committed to a healthier culture, respectful of its environment. In 1997, a plot of 11 hectares of Chablis is conducted in organic and biodynamic.
This first step allows us to observer force and reflection, to better understand this work philosophy. A learning every day for the domaine and its teams.
Today, 60 hectares are certified organic farming and biodynamic 40 hectares.
What makes Domaine Jean-Marc Brocard one of the first wine producers in organic farming in Chablis and Burgundy.
Terroir
Downstream of the Serein, the river which runs through the Chablis vineyards, the Fourchaume terroir has a richer soil than the rest of the vineyard, due to the alluvial soils which are washed by the river. This makes for more flattering, pleasant and supple wines that still carry the mineral quality of the Chablis.
