Producer Information

This is a comparatively large domaine of 23 hectares which takes its name from former grocer Bernard Dupont who married vineyard owner Gisele Tisserandot back in 1954. Their daughter Patricia's husband Didier Chevillon has been in charge of winemaking since 1999 while their other son-in-law Jean-Louis looks after the vineyards. The grapes are now entirely destemmed (although in ‘09 he included some whole bunches) and undergo a pre-fermentation cold-soak. Up to 100% new oak is used for the Grands Crus. These are classic Nuits wines in the sense they are rich and meaty, but have a gloss and succulence to them which makes them relatively easy to understand and enjoy. While some might see Didier as a modernist he eschews over-extraction, and the wines are both expressive and well-balanced.
