Domaine Pierre Vincent

Domaine Pierre Vincent is a wine estate based in Auxey-Duresses in Burgundy’s Côte de Beaune. The domaine is named after and run by winemaker Pierre Vincent, who is well known for his work at Domaine de la Vougeraie and Domaine Leflaive. This project is a collaboration between Pierre and his friends, Hervé Kratiroff and Eric Versini. In 2023, they acquired the estate, previously known as Domaine des Terres de Velle; their inaugural vintage was 2023.

The estate spans 5.7 hectares of vines, covering 20 different appellations. Among the most notable holdings are 0.5 hectares in the Grand Cru of Corton-Charlemagne, along with vines in Chassagne-Montrachet, Puligny-Montrachet, Meursault and beyond. There are a further 1.3 hectares of rented vines (en fermage), taking the total area to seven hectares. The domaine boasts a significant number of old vines, the oldest plot dating back to 1929. The vineyards are in the process of organic and biodynamic conversion.

In the winery, Pierre uses whole-bunch fermentation for a good proportion of his red wines. He also ages part of his whites in amphorae, while keeping new oak to a minimum. Pierre’s approach is to produce delicate, linear wines with tension and purity.
