En Primeur | Domaine Henri Rebourseau
2020 is our first vintage working with the historical house of Henri Rebourseau. The Rebourseau family moved into Gevrey when Jean-Baptiste Rebourseau married a Gevrey native, Louise Victoire Philippon, in 1861. Over the last 150 years, the estate has grown to now include an exceptional 5 hectares of Grand Cru vineyards, 1 hectare of 1er Cru and 6 hectares of village wine, managed by Jean-Baptiste’s descendants, Bénigne and Louis de Sorrel. The most recent development in the estate’s history was in 2018 when Martin and Olivier Bouygues, owners of Ch. Montrose in St Estèphe, purchased a majority interest in this fine Gevrey Chambertin domaine.

Goedhuis, December 2021
La Brunelle is a 3 hectare site, sitting alongside the historical Rebourseau family château in the heart of the village. Bénigne destemmed all the fruit to give a beautifully poised cuvée in a classic, brooding Gevrey style. Rich dark fruits, with notable sweetness and succulence, and perfectly integrated tannins. Superb.
