🏡 About Domaine de la Commaraine

With a château dating to 1112, Domaine de la Commaraine is rooted in Pommard’s winemaking history. At its heart lies the 3.75-hectare Clos de la Commaraine, a Premier Cru monopole held entirely by the estate, allowing a unified approach to the care and expression of this historic vineyard.

Farmed biodynamically, the clos provides a distinctive setting for Pinot Noir in Burgundy’s Côte de Beaune. Its clay-limestone soils contribute to wines that seek to balance Pommard’s depth and structure with freshness and elegance. Under winemaker Paul Krug, the estate’s focus on individual vineyard character extends to a wider range of Burgundian appellations.
