WSI93 Located at the southernmost limit of the Côte de Nuits lies the Domaine D’Ardhuy estate and its monopole Clos des Langres vineyard. The estate is run by Mireille d’Ardhuy-Santiard, who, along with winemaker Carel Voorhuis, makes wine from six Grand Crus and fifteen Premier Crus, including the white Ladoix 1er Cru Le Rognet, which vineyard abuts Corton-Charlemagne. It is said that if this parcel had been planted to Chardonnay when the AOC was classified it would be part of that famous Grand Cru appellation today.
Their flagship Clos des Langres bottling comes from a three hectare walled vineyard first planed by the monks of Cluny in the 10th century. Their estate’s driveway leads to a very pretty nineteenth century house with vines bordered by small fruit trees. The location is Corgoloin, the house and grounds are in the Côte de Nuits but just the other side of their ‘Clos’ wall is the Côte de Beaune.
From this ideal location, the strength and focus of the estate is on the Côte de Beaune, with outstanding holdings in Corton, Ladoix, and Savigny. The domaine’s vineyards throughout the Côte D’Or are the heritage of Mireille’s father Gabriel who founded the estate in 1947. Domaine d’Ardhuy’s wines have been produced biodynamically since 2009, and are bottled unfiltered and unfined.
