Pure Chablis - The Tour

Photos from a tour of the Chablis vineyards organised by the BIVB and run by oenologist-turned-tour-guide Eric Szablowski of Au Coeur du Vin

We are chauffeured by Eric in a vintage 2CV

Looking down the slope: kimmeridgian soils - for Chablis
Looking up: portlandian - for Petit Chablis

The change-over of soil types is very pronounced, and marked by a track
