Chablis celebrates its wines: two days in the heart of the vineyard

On October 25 and 26, 2025, Chablis hosts the 77th edition of its Wine Festival. An opportunity to (re)discover the appellations of the Chablis region in the presence of some fifty winemakers, in the heart of the village Tastings, entertainment, walks in the vineyard and meetings will fill the last weekend of October.

More than 7,000 visitors are expected in the streets of village transformed into a meeting place for winemakers, wine lovers and curious passersby, who come to taste the wines of Chablis and the Greater Auxerre area. Access is free; only the tasting glass (€6) is required to enjoy the stands.

No fewer than fifty winemakers will be present throughout the weekend to showcase their work and the new vintage. The perfect opportunity to taste the appellations of the Petit Chablis to the Grands Crus, but also wines from the Auxerrois region ( Irancy , Saint-Bris Burgundy Côtes d' Auxerre …).

In addition to wines, local food stalls will offer the chance to savor regional products and specialties. Catering will be provided on-site by the Saint Vincent de Ligny-le-Châtel Committee.
