In the northern reaches of Burgundy, where limestone soils meet cool breezes from the Serein Valley, Domaine Oudin has quietly established itself as a name of purity and restraint. This small, family-run domaine is based in Chichée, just south of the village of Chablis, where the vineyards are steep, the roots run deep, and the focus is singular: to let the land speak.

Founded in the late 20th century by Christiane and Jean-Claude Oudin, the estate is now led by their daughters, Nathalie and Isabelle. With humility and care, they have refined a style that is both precise and unforced—eschewing oak, avoiding excess, and allowing the mineral clarity of Chablis to shine through with transparency.

Farming is done with intention and patience, guided by sustainable principles and a light touch in the cellar. The domaine’s holdings, including prized plots in key village and premier cru sites, are all hand-tended and gently pressed, resulting in wines that are clean, textured, and quietly expressive.

At Domaine Oudin, there is no need to embellish. The work is in the detail: in the pruning, the picking, the timing. The result is a kind of elegance that feels effortless—anchored in tradition, shaped by nature, and refined by instinct.
