Château de Maligny Chablis Marche du Roi

The Durup family, winegrowers from father to son, have been cultivating vines in Chablis for fifteen generations. The succession of Jean Durup, who reconstituted the vineyard of Château de Maligny, is ensured by Jean-Paul and Valérie Durup, assisted by Romain Ménissier, operations director. The different wines marketed under the prestigious labels “Château de Maligny”, with the best exposures, and “Églantière” all come from the unique variety of grape varieties used in Chablis: Chardonnay.

“La Marche du Roi” is an historical site located between the Premier Cru “Montée de Tonnerre” and the Premier Cru “Mont de Milieu”.
In times past, this hill was the border between the Kingdom of France and the Dukedom of Burgundy, from which the name “La Marche du Roi” has been given. The origin of the appellation “Chablis La Marche du Roi” is a historical fact in relation to the Chablisian area, which used to be divided into the royal Domain and the grand duchy of Burgundy. This very steep slope is located in the commune of Chablis and has the advantage of a Southeast exposure, therefore a very beautiful luminosity from morning till the end of afternoon. That gives the wine a very high concentration in fruit.
