The winemaker

Winemaker Country Region
Domaine Yvon Clerget France Bourgogne - Côte de Beaune
About the winemaker The Domaine Y. Clerget is one of the oldest domains in Burgundy. The family has been making wine since 1268 and therefore for 28 (!) generations and is therefore closely connected to the region and terroir of Burgundy. Since 2015, Thibaud Clerget (1991) has been responsible for vinification on the family estate. He works his six hectares of vineyards with unprecedented precision and with respect for nature. With vineyards in Volnay, Pommard, Clos de Vougeot and Meursault, he watches over the family property every day. The cellars are located in Pommard and here the wines are raised with an unprecedented passion and talent.

Details

Vineyard The Clerget family's property in the premier cru Caillerets is 0.47 hectares and the vineyard was planted in the 1950s. The vines can be found right next to the adjacent premier cru Clos des Chenes. The soil here is rich in calcareous clay, limestone and large pebbles.
Vinification The vinification at Thibaud is highly dependent on the vintage. Vinification entière one year and no vinification the next, use of new oak depends on the appellation of origin etc. This premier cru is for 20% raised on new oak. The wine is aged for 12 months in 228 liter oak barrels and after that it stays for another 4 months in tank after blending. Remarkable about this vineyard is that there are always many millerandage grapes. This makes for a very concentrated wine.
