DURIEUX Yann

Pinot Noir "GC". If the name wasn’t clear enough, yes, GC stands for Gevrey-Chambertin. A cuvée of Pinot Noir from organic vines, harvested manually. This is a Vin de France! Natural vinification: soft pressing, 10 months spent in barrels and zero sulphites.
Yann Durieux. He may have the look of a wayward hippy, but this is a man who’s never lost his way or his gift. The young vigneron is a wunderkind with an impeccable résumé, including 10 years at Prieuré-Roch as vineyard manager. Let’s just put it in bold now for all to see: ATTENTION PURE TALENT. In 2010, he and Christela took over Domaine Recrue des Sens, then an estate in difficulty. Their daughter Manon would be born there, and today one of Yann’s cuvée carries her name. In creating his estate, situated around the commune of Messanges, Yann revived a few parcels north of the Côte-de-Nuits, in the Hautes Côtes, and soon rented some vines as well to meet a growing demand. This passionate vigneron’s philosophy is simple: fundamentalist natural winemaking. Don’t be fooled, behind his laid-back image, Yann is a tireless worker, perfectionist, meticulous and determined. He could receive the award for the winemaker of the decade in Burgundy!
