Located in the Côte de Beaune, Domaine Dubreuil-Fontaine uses the noble grape varieties of Chardonnay and Pinot noir to make up its wide range of 22 appellations : starting from the fruty Bourgogne, to the lively village, from the prestigious Premier cru to the rare Grand Cru. Its vineyards cover the villages of: Pernand-Vergelesses, Aloxe-Corton and Savigny Les Beaune, Pommard, Beaune and Volnay.

Our cultivating methods are environmentally friendly, the goal is to produce a rich and healthy harvest whilst ensuring the sustainability of our soils. The treatments and spraying are reasoned, soils are tilled in order to maintain maximum natural balance of our vineyards. Harvesting is carried out by hand and sorted, maturity is checked upon arrival at the winery.

Tasting Notes: Beautiful limpid and gold colour in its youth, which takes on amber hues with age. Its bouquet breaths exotic fruit notes with citrus and pineapple and reveals rich honey aromas, grilled almonds and cinnamon, even butter notes during preservation. Ample, fat, fresh with a long, well-balanced and mineral final, this wine has a great ageing potential. Good match with shellfishes such as lobster, spiny lobster, or foie gras.
