Domaine Sylvain Dussort, located in the heart of Meursault, Burgundy, embodies a rich lineage of winemakers and coopers. Sylvain Dussort, inspired by his familial heritage, assumed the reins of the estate in 1982, alongside his wife, on the very land his grandparents once inhabited. With a keen focus on preserving tradition while embracing modernity, the domaine has grown over the years through the acquisition of new vineyards and the expansion of the winery infrastructure.
Encompassing an area of 6.5 hectares, Domaine Sylvain Dussort thrives as a true family endeavor. Cultivating historic Burgundy varietals, their vineyards yield Aligoté and Chardonnay for their remarkable whites, while Pinot Noir graces their red wines. The estate's ethos revolves around minimal intervention, allowing the vines to authentically express each unique terroir. Native yeasts exclusively guide the vinification process in the cellar, with extended lees contact enhancing richness without compromising the distinctive character of each wine.
With its small-scale, artisanal approach and meticulous attention to detail, Domaine Sylvain Dussort produces wines that embody the essence of Meursault and the Burgundian heritage.
