A Family Legacy Rooted in Gevrey-Chambertin
Located in the heart of Gevrey-Chambertin, Dugat-Py Estate has been a cornerstone of Burgundy viticulture for multiple generations. Founded in 1994 by Bernard Dugat and his wife Jocelyne Py, the estate's name reflects the union of two families deeply embedded in the region's winemaking traditions. Today, their son Loïc represents the thirteenth generation, blending modern vision with time-honored practices.
Commitment to Sustainable Viticultural Practices
Since 1999, Dugat-Py Estate has embraced organic farming, achieving full certification in 2003. This commitment underscores a profound respect for the environment and terroir. The vineyards, some over a century old, are cultivated without synthetic chemicals, favoring natural methods to preserve soil health and biodiversity. Additionally, horse plowing in Grand Cru and Premier Cru plots minimizes soil impact, maintaining its integrity.
Wines Reflecting Terroir Authenticity
Spanning approximately 10.5 hectares, primarily planted with Pinot Noir and a small portion of Chardonnay, the estate's vines average 65 years in age. These mature vines yield high-quality grapes, resulting in deep and complex wines. Signature cuvées include Grand Crus like Chambertin, Mazis-Chambertin, and Charmes-Chambertin, as well as renowned Premier Crus such as Gevrey-Chambertin "Lavaux St-Jacques" and "Champeaux." Each wine faithfully mirrors its terroir, elegantly expressing the unique characteristics of each plot.
Winemaking Merging Tradition and Modernity
Dugat-Py Estate's winemaking philosophy centers on minimal intervention, allowing the grapes to fully express their potential. Fermentations utilize indigenous yeasts without added oenological products. Wines mature in oak barrels, with a proportion of new wood tailored to each cuvée, respecting the balance and purity of the fruit. This meticulous approach ensures authentic wines with great finesse and remarkable aging potential.
International Acclaim and a Promising Future
Through unwavering dedication to quality and terroir respect, Dugat-Py Estate's wines are celebrated by enthusiasts and critics worldwide. Limited production and exclusive distribution render these wines highly sought after, epitomizing Burgundy's excellence and craftsmanship. Under Loïc Dugat-Py's leadership, the estate continues to evolve, integrating innovative practices while honoring family traditions, ensuring a bright future for generations to come.
