Meet the Winemaker

Domaine des Monts Luisants | Jean-Marc Dufouleur, Owner and Winemaker
This tiny estate was created in the mid-1970s by Bernard Dufouleur in the mid 1970s, in the famous village of Morey Saint Denis. His son, Jean-Marc, took over in 1999, recovering the vineyards that his father had leased out and creating, in 2000, the first estate-made wine. Although the methods used are not labeled as organic, Jean-Marc makes sure that he obtains healthy grapes, primarily by the soil cultivation and natural methods. He has just produced his first vintage from a newly acquired plot in Corton; the plot is not only classified in Rognet and Corton (the only grand cru red in the Côte de Beaune), but also shared with the prestigious Domaine de la Romanée Conti.
