Mark Haisma is an Australian born winemaker who established his domaine in Burgundy after extensive experience in both the Rhône Valley and Beaune, building a reputation for a hands on, intuitive approach to Pinot Noir. Based in Gevrey Chambertin, he operates primarily as a micro négociant, sourcing fruit from carefully selected growers across the Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune. His wines tend to prioritise energy, texture and drinkability, with a light touch in the cellar, often favouring whole bunch fermentation where appropriate, wild fermentations and élevage that preserves fruit purity and site character rather than heavy structural imprint. The style is modern and expressive while still anchored in clear appellation identity.

Fontenys is a Gevrey Chambertin Premier Cru situated on mid slope limestone and clay soils that bring both structure and aromatic lift, typically producing wines that sit between the power of the village and the finesse of more ethereal sites. In this cuvée, Haisma works with a proportion of whole bunch fermentation to enhance perfume and frame, while keeping extraction controlled to maintain clarity and tension. Elevage is carried out in barrel with a measured use of oak, supporting structure without dominating the fruit profile. The wine shows black cherry, raspberry and redcurrant, layered with violet florals, spice and a fine mineral edge. The palate is structured yet supple, with finely grained tannins and a long, energetic finish that reflects both Gevrey depth and a lifted, transparent style.
