The estate is located in the heart of Chablis in a large property, former residence of the monks of the Abbey of Pontigny, which includes a large 19th century building and a partially underground cellar. The sons of the owner Romain and Damien, passionate about wine, in 2005 began producing their Chablis in a small corner of the father's large cellar.
A few years later, however, Father Pascal Bouchar sold the company, its vineyards and the proceeds from the sale passed into the hands of his sons Romain and Damien Bouchard who had to build a new winery in 2016. This, together with the transition to agriculture organic, have sanctioned the development and success of the Domaine.

Each step of the production is carried out with meticulous care and attention, starting from the vineyard and the harvest.
