David Duband took over the family estate in the Hautes Côtes de Nuits in 1991 and gradually abandoned conventional agriculture, finally obtaining organic certification in 2006. He had then kept the family habit of completely destemming his grapes.
With the help of investor François Feuillet, he was also able to acquire a few additional plots to expand the estate.
It was not until 2008 that David Duband decided to take a strategic turn to favor vinification in whole bunches which today characterize the style of his wines, with gentle extraction and crushing at the end of fermentation which release the residual sugars from the still intact berries.
The wines are then aged in barrels, a third of which are new and lightly toasted. Bursting with aromas and structured around fine, powdery tannins, the estate's wines bear a strong signature but nevertheless remain well differentiated within the range. Faithful to their respective terroirs, they can age with great grace.
