Working at the family domaine since the 1990s, Vincent Dureuil is one of the Côte Chalonnaise’s leading figures. His wines already rank among Burgundy’s top references.

Vincent was only 24 when he received 3 hectares of vines in Rully from his father. Today, at the helm of the family estate of some twenty hectares, the quality of the wines is more exceptional than ever. Located mainly in the heart of the Côte Chalonnaise, in Rully, the domaine also owns vines in the Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits, offering a highly diversified range of appellations. Precision and rigor are the order of the day at the domaine, where Vincent and his wife Céline leave nothing to chance. The soils are pampered and respected, enabling the vines to produce grapes of perfect ripeness. The lunar calendar acts as a guide to the organization of work in the vineyards, and the estate was certified Organic from 2009 to 2016. Intense frost in 2016 forced the estate to use a synthetic molecule to save the harvest. However, the estate was not impressed and has since embarked on its “Reconversion Biologique”: wines from the 2021 vintage will once again be certified.
Efforts continue in the winery, where the grapes undergo a drastic sorting as soon as they arrive, allowing only the finest berries to be kept. The wines, slender and deep, reflect their terroir and the passion of Vincent and Céline. A passion shared by a team who support them on a daily basis in the various tasks in the vineyard and cellar.
Voted Winemaker of the Year 2019 by the Revue du Vin de France, Vincent Dureuil never ceases to amaze and seduce us with his wines of emotion.
