DOMAINE DéSERTAUX-FERRAND

Domaine Désertaux-Ferrand is a family Domaine founded in 1899 and is located in Corgoloin.

The estate covers a total of 20 hectares of vines with about 10 hectares in Côte de Nuits–Villages. The terroir is made up of Limestone with a south east exposure. The middle of the slopes are dedicated to the village D.O, and the foot of the slopes are for the regional D.O. They’re advocates of sustainable viticulture processes, and don’t use any herbicides or phytosanitary products. In a region devoted to Chardonnay, the historical presence of the Pinot Blanc grape variety is a remarkable feature of the estate.

The grapes are harvested by hand for the village and 1er Cru D.O, and the use of indigenous yeasts and the thermoregulation of all their tanks allows the fermentation to take place in the best conditions.
