Its caveau on boulevard Pasteur, in the centre of Chablis, hosts the market: the 2023 edition fell on 9 and 10 December. ## What to expect Browse the craft and food stalls, then choose bottles for Christmas from the cooperative's range, from a crisp Petit Chablis for the aperitif to a grand cru for the main course. It is a relaxed, local affair, easily combined with a walk through the town and lunch. ## Tips for the day Dates are published by La Chablisienne and the Chablis tourist office in the autumn. The caveau is in the centre of Chablis, about 1 hour 30 minutes from Beaune, and a driver makes it easy to fill the boot with wine and presents and to add a stop at another cellar. ## Did you know?
