Domaine Sébastien Dampt is the Chablis domaine run by Sébastien Dampt within the long-established Dampt family estate in Milly, west of Chablis, where the family has made wine for more than 150 years. Working from vineyards that include old-vine sites and Premier Cru holdings such as Vaillons, Côte de Léchet and Les Beugnons, the estate focuses on classic Chablis terroirs. Notes mention soil work, cover crops, massal selection to preserve vine genetics, biodiversity measures such as planting phacelia, and frost protection in the vineyards. The family also runs a négoce for Grand Cru wines, with ageing in older oak barrels. The domaine has received recognition including a silver medal for its 2014 Chablis 1er Cru Côte de Léchet.
