About the Producer Chapuis & Chapuis

The story starts with two passionate brothers, Romain - a seasoned oenologist - and Jean-Guillaume, who studied law and business. Romain travelled the world from north to south, exploring vineyards and making wine twice a year - notably at Philippe Pacalet's winery - before realising his dream and teaming up with his brother to create their own domain. In 2009, their adventure began in Pommard, where they set up their winery without yet owning any vines. Today, they cultivate between 4 and 5 hectares of vines and vinify the equivalent of 12 hectares, combining their own vineyards and grape purchases.
Their philosophy is simple: to produce “good and honest” wine, as Jean-Guillaume summarises. To achieve this, they rely on low-intervention winemaking, minimal sulphur during vinification, certified organic vines, and a supply of mostly organic grapes. In the cellar, the white grapes are pressed directly, sometimes undergoing pellicular maceration, and are fermented in barrels. For the red grapes, vinification changes depending on the year, but can include whole bunches, destemming and carbonic maceration. The wine style is pure, fruity and always marked by freshness and balance.
Labels with white backgrounds are for wines from their own vineyards, and those with black backgrounds are for wines from wine merchants.
