THE COMPANY

Claude Dugat is an extraordinary interpreter of Burgundy and, with the help of his wife Marie-ThĂ©rèse and his three children Bertrand, Laetitia and Jeanne, he runs the estate in Gevrey-Chambertin that was established by his grandfather and consolidated by his father. Six hectares cultivated using organic agricultural methods, some of which worked with the help of horses. The grapes give extremely delicate and elegant wines. Adjectives are wasted on this small estate, where the wines are a perfect balance between “silkiness” and complexity of Gevrey-Chambertin terroir. Today, Claude Dugat is one of the best interpreters of the Burgundy tradition in the CĂ´te de Nuits.
