Aubert de Villaine, the emblematic co-owner and manager of La Romanée-Conti, lives and works in Bouzeron, the first village south of the Côte de Beaune, on his Domaine acquired in 1971. Assisted since 2003 by his nephew Pierre de Benoist, he practises the same high-flying viticulture as at La Romanée-Conti, combining tradition, openness, purity, rigour and organic cultivation (since 1986). Thank you to Mr de Villaine for championing both premium Burgundy and artisan Burgundy with the same passion and commitment.
Awarded two stars in the 2027 edition of the Revue du Vin de France guide: “These wines epitomise the excellence of the Chalonnais region, and their quality has never been so refined ”.
