About the Wine Maker 
Domaine Dubreuil-Fontaine is a remarkable yet understated producer in Burgundy, crafting exceptional wines from their base in the charming hamlet of Pernand-Vergelesses, located just north of Beaune. Perhaps it is this tranquil setting, removed from the intense pursuit of wines further north in Côte de Nuits, that has allowed the domaine to remain relatively undiscovered. This, in turn, has kept their wines accessible at prices far below the escalating norms of Burgundy.
The domaine is run by fifth-generation winemaker and owner Christine Gruère-Dubreuil, who is also joined by her daughter Clémentine. While their holdings extend as far south as Volnay Pommard, the majority of their production focuses Pernand, encompassing sites on Corton grand cru hillside and the premier cru of Savigny-lès-Beaune, Les Vergelesses All red wines are destemmed and aged for 12-15 months barrel, with new oak usage ranging from 35% grand cru wines to a of 15% for the of their portfolio
