Wine estates Couchey

It all started with a love story. Suzanne met Pierre, they got married and had many children. Three to be precise: Maxime, Romain and Pierre-Marie. Three brothers who seemed destined to take over the family estate in Couchey. But even if you have this gift in your blood, being a winegrower cannot be improvised. And that is the character of the Derey family: pugnacity, research and a visceral attachment to a terroir and its fruit. Being young winemakers is their strength, and it is by respecting the soil of their ancestors that they revisit this dusty, old school Burgundy that they love so much. The moral of the story? Love (of wine) always wins.

On no less than 20 hectares distributed between the communes of Marsannay-la-Côte, Fixin, Couchey, Gevrey-Chambertin and Dijon (one of the rare vineyards really from Dijon), the 3 brothers Pierre-Marie, Maxime and Romain make wine as a family! Founded in the early 1950s, the 70 years of viticulture are expressed today through the visit of the cellars and the tasting of the wines of this vineyard. The diversity of Burgundy's climates offers a range of very different great wines, such as Clos des Marcs d'Or, Fixin premier cru, Hervelets, or Aligoté.

The Philippe Robert estate covers 8 hectares. A vineyard culture that has been passed down for 4 generations. Initially vinifying the Burgundy appellation, the family business has diversified to offer Pinot Noirs from the vines of Marsannay, Fixin, Gevrey-Chambertin and Chardonnay. More than 25 years ago Philippe succeeded his parents and it is since with Johann, his eldest son, that this domain continues. Wines like Marsannay "Les Genelières" or "Champs perdrix" as well as Fixin "Entre Deux velles" are to be discovered in the cellar. Make an appointment !
