Bernard Dampt is from a family of farmers who have been growing grapes in Chablis for generations. He was worried that he wouldn't have any land to leave his sons to continue the vigneron tradition, so in the 1980's Bernard began buying up vineyards in the hopes that his three boys would continue farming and making wine. In 1998, his wish came true: he retired and handed the reins over to his children. Today, Bernard's sons, Eric, Emmanuel and Hervé craft over 30 wines ranging from Grand Cru Chablis to basic Bourgogne. They combine tradition and modernism to produce high quality, terroir driven wines for drinkers of all walks of life.

Since 2019, all Dampt vineyards have received HVE Certification (Haute Valeur Environnementale or High Environmental Value) from the French Ministry of Agriculture. This three-tiered system is a sustainability initiative that encourages farms and vineyards to increase biodiversity, decrease the negative environmental impact of their pesticide/herbicide use, manage their fertilizer inputs and improve their water management. Once an estate completes each of the three, increasingly stringent tiers, they are awarded certification.

Dampt's Chevalier d'Eon rouge pours a beautiful deep ruby red displaying intoxicating red berry aromas tinged with a kiss of smoke. Flavors of bright cherry and raspberry wash over the palate. This wine is round, yet fresh with excellent structure. The mineral-tinged finish shows an incredible balance of vibrant acidity and ripe tannins. Enjoy with baked brie, veal Marsala or pork chop Milanese.
