Eponymous with Chambolle, Ghislaine Barthod works around 6 hectares in this legendary part of Burgundy. While the plots are scattered and the soil varies, it mainly consists of limestone in different states. This, along with a multitude of other factors, contributes to the finesse and delicacy of the wines from Ghislaine. The average age of the vines on the Barthod estate is over 30 years old and yields are always modest since both vigorous pruning and occasional green harvest are practiced.
Ghislaine follows traditional methods of vinification which means partially destemmed bunches that undergo spontaneous fermentation. The coinciding maceration lasts for around 2 to 5 days depending on temperatures. After fermentation, the wines are racked into small barrels (a quarter new) and aged for about 20-24 months. These wines are absolutely ageworthy, but can also be drunk young. Here, you have a rare opportunity to thoroughly explore the terroir of this singular village.

Guillaume Rouget (son of the famous Emmanuel Rouget who was the apprentice of the legendary Burgundian grand master Henri Jayer), and Frédéric Jametton have joined forces to create a new project in the Beaujolais. Domaine Vernus is located in the hillside town of Régnié-Durette in the heart of the region.
Maxime was 20 years old when he was left in charge of the famed Domaine Georges Noëllat in Vosne-Romanée. This was in 2010, and now, more than a decade later, he has achieved an almost cult-like status for his wines and is still one of Burgundy’s most revered winemakers.
Judith Beck makes wines in Gols in the Neusiedlersee region of Austria. It was Judith’s parents who founded the family domaine in 1976. The first wine from Judith’s hands came in 2001, and in 2004 she assumed full control of the winery with the help of her partner, Uli. This came after Judith gained international experience at wineries such as Chateau Cos d’Estournel in Bordeaux, Braida in Piedmont and Errazuriz in Chile.
