The « Domaine des Malandes » is a family estate, which has the privilege to associate the traditional experiences of wine with the best modern equipments. The result is high quality wines which obtain awards from a lot of competitions. The perfect care brought to the vinification and the various locations of our parcels contribute largely to the finesse of our wines. All our Chablis can be perfectly appreciated with any kind of sea food, appetizer, fish grilled or in a delicate sauce or white meat like pork or poultry.


I am a member of an old Chablis wine family, the Tremblays, and have run my own wine estate since 1972. These days I am in charge of the Domaine des Malandes, and work with the help of my wine maker, Guénolé Breteaudeau, a young oenologist who joined me in 2006.

CLASSIC WINES

Both in vineyard and in cellar our approach is to respect the environment, with the aim of quality and tipicity in our wines. Our wines are appreciated for their freshness, their elegance and their minerality, which comes directly from the famous kimmeridgian sub-soil that is unique to the vineyards of Chablis.

THE VINES AND VINIFICATION

In the matter of wine-making, Domaine des Malandes' main objective consists in leaving a maximum of possibilities to the soil to express itself. Chablis has the good fortune of possessing a unique type of soil called Kimmeridgian which confers to its wine its mineral and vivid tastes. Constantly during the vegetative period, the Domaine des Malandes' team controls the vine's foliage and fruit, and uses effectively the integrated pest management. So when harvest time arrives, the grapes reach optimal maturities and qualities. In the cellar, a lot of care is taken of vinification. Guénolé Breteaudeau's interventions as a wine-maker do not mark the wines but on the contrary leave them a chance of asserting their own character.

THE REWARDS OF ENTHUSIASM

Domaine des Malandes sells 92 per cent of its production on the export market and is regularly recognised in national and international competitions.
