Description
Domaine Philippe Chéron is an exciting and increasingly acclaimed estate based in the Côte de Nuits, Burgundy, led by winemaker Philippe Chéron, who brings both technical expertise and deep family heritage to his work. Originally trained as an enologist, Philippe worked as a consultant before taking over the family vineyards, which had historically been leased to other growers, including Domaine Confuron-Cotetidot.
The domaine was officially founded in 2011, when Philippe began bottling wines under his own label. His holdings span prestigious appellations in Vosne-Romanée, Nuits-Saint-Georges, and Gevrey-Chambertin, including several Premier Cru and Grand Cru sites such as Charmes-Chambertin and Clos de Vougeot.
Philippe Chéron’s winemaking philosophy is grounded in low-intervention viticulture and precision in the cellar. He practices organic vineyard management (though not formally certified) and vinifies with a restrained hand, native yeasts, minimal extraction, judicious use of new oak, and a focus on preserving freshness and terroir transparency.
The style of Domaine Philippe Chéron’s wines is marked by purity, elegance, and structural finesse. They are expressive of their individual terroirs, with a harmonious balance between fruit, minerality, and gentle oak influence. As Philippe continues to refine his craft, the domaine is quickly becoming a name to watch among Burgundy’s new generation of quality-focused, terroir-driven producers.
