Domaine Philippe Cordonnier (Bourgogne)

Anecdotes about the domain

Although he does not come from a family of winemakers, Philippe Cordonnier has the experience of an old hand. He fell into the barrel when he was young, planted his own vines and managed everything from the seed to the bottle. Vintage after vintage, Philippe gains confidence to make the Burgundian climates speak in the glass.

The domain's short story

The 2020 vintage marks the first year of the estate's official conversion to organic farming. Prior to its certification, the domaine had already been cultivating its vines in this way, but it seemed right for Philippe to make his work official. Domaine Philippe Cordonnier is located in the commune of Corgoloin in Burgundy, in the Bourgogne Aligoté and Hautes Côtes de Beaune appellations. His first cuvées immediately won over our team. He is undeniably one of the new domaines to watch in Burgundy! Philippe Cordonnier has been in contact with the vines since his youth. After training in Beaune, he learned the winemaking trade by working on several Burgundy estates. In 2009, he decided to set up his own domaine. He vinified his first vintages in 2015, and today the estate covers 7 hectares, farmed organically with the greatest respect for the terroir. Only the soil is ploughed. The estate uses natural grapes, allowing you to enjoy the full flavors of Burgundy wines.

The winemaker's pride

After having worked in several Burgundy domains, Philippe Cordonnier created in 2009 his own domain on beautiful appellations of Burgundy (Bourgogne Aligoté, Hautes Côtes de Beaune). He vinified his first vintages in 2015. He is undeniably one of the new domains to follow in Burgundy!
