Domaine des Perdrix

The Devillard family, a great Burgundy lineage

A major player in Burgundy winemaking, the Devillard family holds a unique place in the region's wine landscape. Owner of 4 iconic estates within the Côte de Nuits, Côte Chalonnaise, and Mâconnais, they embody a demanding and historical vision of wine, based on respect for the land, precision in vineyard work, and the promotion of prestigious appellations. Each property is considered here as a distinct entity, with its own identity, while adhering to a common philosophy: to produce wines that are true to their terroir. 

 
Domaine des Perdrix, excellence in Côte de Nuits

The Domaine des Perdrix represents one of the most prestigious wine heritages of the Côte de Nuits. Through appellations such as Nuits-Saint-Georges or Echézeaux, as well as two Premiers Crus, this exceptional vineyard truly embodies the qualitative pinnacle of Burgundy: great wines combining finesse, elegance, aromatic richness, and aging potential.

 
Château de Chamirey, flagship of Mercurey in Côte Chalonnaise

Château de Chamirey is one of the emblematic estates of the Côte Chalonnaise. Located in Mercurey, the estate's vineyards extend over 37 hectares and are the true pillar of the family heritage. The château is renowned for the consistency of its vintages, both red and white. Complex and intense bottles, wonderfully expressing the indulgentise and richness of this beautiful appellation.

 
Domaine de la Ferté, an authentic expression of Givry

Another property, Domaine de la Ferté, is located in the Givry AOC, also in the Côte Chalonnaise. The 6 hectares here highlight soils recognized for producing bottles full of finesse and indulgentise, marked by fruit and spices.
 

Domaine de la Garenne, a contemporary vision of the Mâconnais

In the Mâconnais, it is the Beaumont family who, this time, are associated with the Devillard siblings.Le Domaine de la Garenne illustrates a more southern facet of Burgundy where the whites made from Chardonnay reign supreme. The estate's range stands out for its balance and aromatic expression, both indulgent and profound. Two whites are offered: Mâcon-Azé and Mâcon-Solutré-Pouilly.
 
Despite the diversity of appellations and geographical areas, all the mentioned estates share a common philosophy : rigorous work in the vineyard, a plot-based approach that respects the terroirs, precise vinification, and a constant desire to reveal the identity of each plot. This consistency explains the recognition these estates' wines enjoy today among both enthusiasts and industry professionals.
 

The appellations of Domaine des Perdrix

Through its exceptional heritage of vineyards, Domaine des Perdrix highlights several emblematic appellations of Burgundy, thus offering a comprehensive overview of the hierarchy of wines in Burgundy. From the "village" bottle to the Grand Cru, each appellation is approached here with the same high standards, in order to reveal the unique identity of each terroir.
 

Nuits-Saint-Georges, the emblematic appellation of the estate

As a historic appellation of Domaine des Perdrix, Nuits-Saint-Georges holds a central place in the identity of the estate. The majority of the estate's cuvées are indeed produced here, and the bottles from this appellation are distinguished by their structure, depth, and aromatic intensity.

One white and four reds are produced here. The iconic reference of the estate for this appellation is certainly the Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru "Aux Perdrix". This unique bottle is characterized by a solid structure, fine tannins, beautiful aromatic intensity, and magnificent aging potential. It perfectly reflects the style of the estate: precise, deep, and balanced !
 

Vosne-Romanée, the finesse and Burgundian elegance

Symbol of refinement and subtlety, this appellation holds a special place in the Burgundian wine landscape. The Domaine des Perdrix produces a bottle in AOC "village" of great elegance, highlighting the delicacy of the fruit and the aromatic precision, all with much depth and a magnificent minerality.
 

Échezeaux, an exceptional Grand Cru

The Grand Cru Échezeaux represents one of the most prestigious expressions of Domaine des Perdrix. Located in the commune of Flagey-Échezeaux, this Grand Cru is based on a mosaic of climates with varied identities and expressions. Domaine des Perdrix showcases this richness through two cuvées: Échezeaux Grand Cru and Échezeaux Grand Cru du Dessus.

-The Échézeaux Grand Cru cuvée comes from plots located on clay-limestone soils typical of the Côte de Nuits and offers an expression that is both structured and elegant.This great wine stands out for its aromatic richness, blending red and black fruits, spicy notes, and finely integrated woody nuances. On the palate, the texture is silky, the structure is balanced, and the finish is persistent.

-Échézeaux Grand Cru du Dessus comes from a higher-altitude area of the same vineyard, often considered one of the highest quality parts of this terroir. This plot benefits from poorer soils and a favorable exposure, giving the wine a more taut and chiselled expression. Compared to the classic cuvée from the same vineyard, "du Dessus" is characterized by greater finesse and increased aromatic complexity. The aromas are subtle, the mineral framework more pronounced, and the length on the palate particularly remarkable, precisely reflecting the identity of this exceptional site.

Through these two cuvées, Domaine des Perdrix perfectly illustrates the diversity and richness of the Échezeaux terroir.
