We are in the heart of Burgundy, where wine is truly a family affair. This is home to Domaine Chantal Lescure, founded in 1975 by Chantal Lescure and Xavier Machard de Gramont. After Chantal’s passing in 1996, her sons Aymeric and Thibault took over the reins of the estate, choosing to honour their mother’s legacy through a bold and forward-thinking decision for the time: committing entirely to a form of viticulture deeply respectful of the land. Under their guidance, and thanks to the technical talent of François Chaveriat, the Domaine undertook a radical transformation that led to organic certification in 2009. The estate covers around 19 hectares of vineyards located in some of the most prestigious areas of the region. Its operational heart lies in Nuits-Saint-Georges, while the vineyards stretch north towards Chambolle-Musigny and south as far as Volnay and Meursault. This diversity allows the Domaine to produce almost twenty different cuvées every year, each one shaped by a specific micro-terroir – the famous Burgundian “climats”. While the vineyards are tended with artisanal dedication, in the cellar the guiding principle is “gentleness”. The winemaking philosophy avoids any kind of forceful intervention. Fermentations rely on indigenous yeasts, rackings are kept to a minimum and the use of oak is skilful and restrained, never overpowering. The goal is to craft wines that are authentic, pure and full of personality.
