CAVES CARRIÈRESharing’s Delight
LEBREUIL PIERRE & J-B
The story of Domaine Pierre et Jean-Baptiste Lebreuil began with Paul Lebreuil in 1935. Paul owned a few ouvrées and, like many winegrowers at the time, he practiced mixed farming, selling his wines mainly in bulk to wine merchants. From 1958 onwards, his son Pierre joined him on the estate and took courses in oenology and viticulture at the Beaune viticultural school, before expanding the estate spectacularly with the purchase of several hectares of vines and a building. Pierre developed bottling on the estate and exported his wines all over Europe. So, when Jean-Baptiste arrived in 1999, having graduated from the Lycée Viticole de Beaune as a Technico-commercial en Vins et Spiritueux and armed with a wealth of experience in Bordeaux, Argentina and Australia, everything was in place for the Domaine to flourish. Thanks to his studies and various experiences, Jean-Baptiste has mastered the fundamentals of oenology (vinification, ageing), winemaking hygiene (which is essential to the production of quality wines) and marketing. Jean-Baptiste is also interested in biodynamic viticultural practices, in order to be as close as possible to Nature!
Something tells us that the story won't stop any time soon... to the delight of our palate, for Jean-Baptiste is one of those deserving independent winegrowers who bring their expression of terroir to the table, and who are increasingly noticed by specialized guides and magazines.
Geographical location of the estate
Since 2001, the Domaine has cultivated 10.5 hectares of vines in the villages of Savigny-lès-Beaune and Aloxe-Corton, producing regional, village and 1er Cru red and white wines. In 2007, the estate continued to expand, adding a parcel in the village of Volnay and another in the village of Pommard. The estate now boasts 13 hectares of vines, including two Grand Crus, Corton Maréchaudes and Corton-Charlemagne.
