Description

France / Burgundy / Côte de Beaune / Pommard

Domaine de la Commaraine is located just outside the village center of Pommard and is an outstanding winery in every respect with a beautiful château. The purchase of the idyllic estate by Americans Denise Dupré and Mark Nunelly in 2017 made headlines, as, despite Pommard's long historical presence, it had been overlooked by wine collectors for many years. Today, Pommard captivates fine wine collectors. The walled vineyard, shielded from external influences, is ideal for natural viticulture and is now cultivated accordingly. For the first time, the most prestigious Premier Cru plot, the Clos de la Commaraine Monopole 2018, was exclusively bottled!

In Portrait:

Domaine de la Commaraine

Domaine de la Commaraine lies in the heart of Pommard and farms some of the historically most important sites of the Côte de Beaune, including the prestigious monopole Clos de la Commaraine. Soils of limestone, marl and fractured rock give the wines structure, mineral depth and aromatic clarity. The focus is on Pinot Noir, which here shows typical Pommard power while also expressing a new elegance and fine tannin structure. Modern vineyard work, organic farming and precise vinification lead to wines that harmoniously combine red fruit, floral notes, tension and Burgundian finesse. The domaine is regarded as a revived classic and a radiant voice of Pommard’s terroir.

Burgund

Origin in Focus

Burgundy

The Burgundy (Bourgogne) wine region is shaped by small parcels and historic vineyards. The focus here is on two grape varieties – Pinot Noir and Chardonnay – which reflect soil, climate and craftsmanship with exceptional transparency.

Between Dijon and Mâcon, a narrow band of vineyards stretches for around 250 km, each with its own distinctive character.
