Domaine Derain is a family estate in Saint Aubin in the Côte de Beaune of Burgundy. The domaine was founded by Dominique Derain, formerly a cooper, in 1988 and has been farmed organically and biodynamically since the start, with certification in the early 1990s. Today the estate is managed by Julien Altaber and Carole Schwab, continuing the tradition of natural and terroir focused winemaking. The vineyards are planted in parcels around Saint Aubin and Puligny‑Montrachet, and in the cellar Derain uses indigenous yeasts, manual handling and minimal intervention to let the purity and minerality of the fruit express themselves.
Bourgogne Blanc La Combe 2022 is a white wine made from 100 % Chardonnay from a small parcel in the village of Puligny‑Montrachet. The grapes are hand harvested, directly pressed and fermented with indigenous yeasts, then aged on lees in old oak barrels for around twelve months before bottling without fining or filtration. This wine displays bright citrus and orchard fruit aromatics with floral and mineral notes, a round texture and lively acidity that reflect both the limestone and clay influenced soils and Derain’s natural winemaking style.
