Discover Domaine Roland Lavantureux 🍇
Domaine Roland Lavantureux is a family estate in Lignorelles, Chablis, with roots stretching back eight generations. Founded in 1979 by Roland Lavantureux, the domaine grew from a small family business into a respected 20-hectare estate, now led by his sons Arnaud and David. The team carries out all vineyard work, vinification and bottling at the domaine, with Arnaud overseeing the vineyard and winemaking while David leads sales and marketing.
Today, the estate is known for its full range of Chablis wines, as well as Bourgogne Épineuil and Bourgogne Tonnerre, and for a style defined by freshness, saline energy and precise mineral drive.
With old-vine holdings, a clear focus on expressing each terroir and vintage, and new projects including the steep 1er Cru Vau de Vey plus parcels in Bourgogne Tonnerre and Épineuil, Lavantureux continues to build a reputation for Chablis with depth, tension and character.
James Suckling captures the style well: “The concentration is impressive here with sliced lemon, green apple and electric acidity.”
Spotlight on two 2022 cuvées:
Domaine Lavantureux Chablis Vauprin 2022 – A pale lemon-yellow Chardonnay showing an ultra-refined, chiselled bouquet. Crisp, saline and beautifully precise, it delivers pure white fruit, razor-sharp tension and superb length. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel for finesse and precision, followed by 12 to 15 months of ageing, split between stainless steel and new oak. (JM 92, 5-Star)
Domaine Lavantureux Bourgogne Épineuil Les Fauconniers 2022 – Bright purple in colour, with strong reduction at first but an impressive wave of fruit underneath. Meticulous sorting, destemming and long fermentation under controlled temperatures lead into 15 months of ageing, mostly in new oak, giving structure, depth and serious promise. (JM 90-91, 5-Star)
