The Fevre family began several centuries ago in the heart of Chablis vineyards. In fact, we have been able to establish our genealogic tree back to 1745 !
Our family has always worked in the vineyards : some were coopers (around 1800), others were nurserymen (around 1900).

Allow us to give you more detailed information about our previous generations:

• One of our ancestors, ZEPHYR, already cultivated the VAULORENT vineyard : back in the 19th century.
• It was principally at the beginning of the 20th century, with MARCEL (1876-1976), Gilles great grandfather, an adventurous and a man with insight, who saw a future for the Chablis wine that our vineyard develops.
• Next with BERNARD (1902-1993), Gilles grandfather, our vineyard again grew, thanks to the purchase of Chablis Grand Cru vines (Les Preuses) and Chablis Premier Cru (Fourchaume).
• Then JACQUES, Gilles father enlarged the domain still further with the purchase of Chablis parcels, as well as their replantation as it w affected by the Phylloxera louse.

Our vineyard is the fruit of the dedicated labour of our previous generations.

Gilles studied oenology at university where he met Nathalie (an oenologist as well). Today, thanks to the knowledge and the experience acquired in different areas (in France as well as abroad), we endeavour to valorise and enrich the patrimony entrusted to us. Equally, we collaborate with different wine organisms and the development of our appellation with the ChablisDefence Appellation Syndicate, INAO, and BIVB for example.

We have two children, who although still young, already appear to emulate their parents passion in viticulture.
