Lucie Thieblemont
Crafted Across Three Generational Estates
Charly Nicolle and his wife, Lucie Thieblemont, now manage and maintain wine from three different family estate Domaines. Charly started in 1997 with less than 1 hectare of his own vineyards while working alongside his father. There are three separate Domaines representing three generations in the Nicolle family. Today, Charly produces these wines, together with his wife Lucie.
The largest holdings of the Domaine are classified Chablis AOC, located mostly around the village of Fleys, including holdings in two premier crus: Les Fourneaux and Mont de Milieu. The Domaine has long applied integrated farming methods and is committed to sustainable agriculture through the HVE (High Environmental Value) certification with a focus to become certified organic. As an appellation, Chablis is a unique place because vineyard classification is more closely tied to the geology and soil than in any other region in France. The main substrate is Jurassic limestone, called Kimmeridgian, from over 150 million years ago.
The vinification is on the lees in small stainless-steel tanks with approximately 20% of the wine aged in 400-500 liter oak barrels for depth. Charly has short square tanks to promote lees contact, as well as tall thin tanks to minimize lees contact when appropriate. This hybrid technique produces a house style that is both fresh and vibrant, but also rich and textured on the mid-palate.
