The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine Céline and Frédéric Gueguen of Domaine Gueguen are crafting an impressive legacy in the heart of the Yonne. Their estate stands out for its exceptional quality and remarkably accessible pricing. The lineup includes crisp, energetic Chardonnays with striking precision and beautifully expressive reds, offering a range that’s as enjoyable as it is consistent.
Wine The 2023 White Chablis Grand Cru Bougros, appearing on Ventealapropriete for the first time, deserves decanting to fully reveal its mineral profile and potential. With impressive structure and depth, this wine boasts both richness and texture, but it requires patience. A true expression of its prestigious terroir, it will reach its peak in about two years and can be enjoyed over the following decade. Rated 93/100 by the Selection Committee.
