At Lafarge in Volnay.  A cellar worthy of UNESCO World Heritage classification.

On the hill of Grand Crus…Chablis.

Cellars.  The finest ones are a not a playground and should be thoroughly respected.  They are not always glorious or glamourous looking, but when they are it is a memorable place to spend an afternoon, or two, or a week straight while confirming inventory.  Whether you have an immense cave, a closet, a basement, or a EuroCave…jump inside today and pull a bottle.
