Gilles Jourdan established his own domaine in 1998, having managed the family holdings since 1970, whilst making wine at Maison Albert Bichot in Beaune. The domaine is located in the quiet village of Corgoloin, on the eastern side of the Route Nationale. There are just five hectares, including a monopole, La Robignotte, which is a special sloping vineyard on blue marl. Gilles’ chai is tiny, crammed with equipment and a small tasting table, with a bottle cellar to one side and a barrel cellar to the other. Gilles tends to pick his old, low yielding vines at full ripeness. We represent Gilles exclusively in the UK as well as in Hong Kong and Singapore. The 2019s will be added to our Burgundy hub as soon as we have tasted.
