Domaine Julien Cruchandeau Description
Julien Cruchandeau originally set out to become a chef, but he missed being outside, so he changed track and enrolled at wine school in Beaune. After school he got a job in Gevrey-Chambertin, at Domaine Seguin. He points out that whether you are cooking, playing music or making wine there are definitely some similarities. The methods are different, he says, but you are using instruments to transform raw material into a product, and you are working a lot with your senses.
Two separate east-facing, hillside, old-vine parcels near Nuits-St-Georges in Chaux totaling 2.5 hectares. One has 6-year-old vines, and the other 30-year-old vines. Altitude of 380 meters. Yields are kept very low. These vinieyards were some of the first to be planted at lower density and trained with high canopies.
