Tasting Notes
Les Pargues is a renowned site on the slopes between Vaillons and Montmains, and in the hands of Domaine Servin it delivers a classic expression of Chablis terroir. The nose is lifted and precise, showing citrus zest, green apple and hints of white flowers, underpinned by a subtle oyster-shell minerality. The palate is finely etched, with ripe lemon and stone fruit flavours carried on a line of chalky tension. There is just a whisper of texture from lees ageing, giving depth without obscuring the crystalline freshness. The finish is long, saline and mouthwatering – a benchmark Chablis that combines purity and vibrancy with quiet complexity. - Chris L
Domaine Servin is one of the historic names of Chablis, with family roots in the region dating back to the 17th century. Based in the town of Chablis itself, the estate remains family-run and today is overseen by François Servin, who continues a long tradition of producing wines that are deeply tied to their terroir.
The domaine owns over 30 hectares of vineyards, spanning Petit Chablis through to several premier and grand cru sites. Among their holdings are parcels in Montée de Tonnerre, Bougros, Les Preuses and Blanchot, alongside top village sites like Les Pargues. This broad palette of terroirs allows Servin to showcase the full range of Chablis expressions – from vibrant, early-drinking styles to complex, age-worthy bottlings.
Viticulture follows traditional methods with close attention to vineyard health, and in the cellar both stainless steel and oak are used depending on the cuvée. The aim is always balance: preserving Chablis’ hallmark minerality and tension while allowing texture and complexity to develop through careful élevage.
Domaine Servin’s wines are known for their purity, classical structure and longevity, making them a reliable benchmark for Chablis enthusiasts and collectors alike.
