History of Domaine Vincent Paindavoine

The story of Domaine Vincent Paindavoine is one of a family determined to build a vineyard holding in one of the world’s most coveted wine regions. Vincent’s parents and grandparents worked for many years at Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, tending Burgundy’s most prestigious vines. Beginning in the late 1960s and again in the 1980s, they acquired tiny plots in Vosne-Romanée, working for DRC by day and devoting their evenings and weekends to their own vines. Aubert de Villaine even lent them a tractor to tend these precious family plots.

This patient endeavor has resulted in a 1.5-hectare family vineyard spread across some fifteen plots. After an initial career in theater, Vincent studied viticulture at the CFPPA in Beaune in 2005. He then gained substantial experience with renowned winegrowers such as Rapet and Bruno Clavelier before also working in South Africa.

Since 2012, Vincent Paindavoine has served as vineyard manager for the Côte de Nuits Grands Crus at the Hospices de Beaune, overseeing exceptional plots such as Clos de la Roche, Mazis-Chambertin and Echézeaux. Working daily with Burgundy’s finest terroirs has shaped his expertise and informed his approach to winemaking.

In 2022, Vincent officially launched his own estate, vinifying grapes from some of the family plots. He also took over Domaine Rayard and acquired 0.15 hectares in Gevrey-Chambertin through SAFER. His uncle Jean-Louis Raillard, mayor of Vosne-Romanée, has gradually entrusted him with all the family vines, enabling the estate to add the prestigious Vosne-Romanée Village and Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru Les Beaux Monts appellations to its range from the 2025 vintage.

Terroirs and Vines of Domaine Vincent Paindavoine

Domaine Vincent Paindavoine cultivates less than three hectares across some fifteen plots, growing Aligoté, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. This mosaic of terroirs spans several appellations in the Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune, offering a varied range of expressions of Burgundy’s soils.

The estate’s plots benefit from the characteristic geology of the Côte d’Or. The soils consist mainly of gray-blue Marne de Bresse clay mixed with limestone scree, providing excellent natural drainage. This combination gives the wines distinctive minerality and good aging potential. The east-facing vines enjoy optimal sunlight on the Côte’s limestone slopes.

The estate cultivates vines propagated through massal selection and inherited from previous generations, preserving authentic plants well adapted to the terroir. Some plots contain century-old vines, including Aligoté vines more than 90 years old in the Les Paquiers lieu-dit. The age of these vines brings aromatic concentration and complexity to the wines.

Viticulture at the estate follows organic farming principles, with formal conversion underway and certification expected in 2025. Vincent also practices biodynamics, respecting natural rhythms and favoring plant-based preparations to strengthen soil vitality. Most work is done by hand, with tractor use limited to spraying and plowing between May and July.

Pruning methods vary by plot: single Guyot, Guyot-Poussard or bush pruning. Vine training is tailored to each plot, with some vines trimmed and others tied. This individual attention to every vine reflects a respectful approach to viticulture in which observation takes precedence over standardization. The aim is to produce healthy, balanced grapes that faithfully express their geographic origins without artifice.

Winemaking at Domaine Vincent Paindavoine

Winemaking at Domaine Vincent Paindavoine takes a gentle approach that respects the fruit. The white grapes are pressed delicately, while the red grapes are almost exclusively destemmed. All fermentations occur naturally with indigenous yeasts. This minimalist approach allows the grapes to fully express the character of their terroir.

For the white wines, vinification begins without any added sulfur. The grapes are pressed directly, then cold-settled before spontaneous fermentation. The wines are aged for 12 months in oak barrels. New oak is used at a maximum of 30%, and only for cuvées of more than two barrels, preserving the wine’s finesse and natural aromatic purity. Occasional lees stirring enriches the texture without weighing down the structure.

The red wines undergo five days of cold maceration without sulfur, followed by one to two weeks of fermentation in stainless steel tanks with daily pump-overs and occasional punch-downs. This moderate extraction preserves the tannic elegance characteristic of Vosne-Romanée Pinot Noir. Winemaking choices evolve with the vintage: in 2022, all the grapes were destemmed, while from 2024 onward, a higher proportion of whole clusters is favored, allowing techniques to be adapted to each year’s climatic conditions.

After pressing, the wines settle for a week before beginning 12 months of aging in barrels. Sulfur is added only after malolactic fermentation or before bottling, with very modest total levels of 40 to 80 ppm. Light filtration before bottling ensures stability while preserving the wines’ sensory richness.

This low-intervention approach, born of experience gained in Burgundy’s finest terroirs, produces wines of remarkable purity that combine elegance, freshness and aging potential.

The cuvées of Domaine Vincent Paindavoine

Bourgogne Aligoté "Les Paquiers"

Made from Aligoté vines more than 90 years old in the Les Paquiers lieu-dit, north of Vosne-Romanée, this dry white wine offers a rare expression of this Burgundian grape variety. Clay-limestone soils with marl and limestone scree give the wine appealing minerality. Fermented and aged in older oak barrels, this Bourgogne Aligoté develops citrus freshness supported by lively saline tension.

Made from Chardonnay planted in 1984 in the Les Chassagnes lieu-dit, north of Vosne-Romanée, this white wine reveals the classic elegance of this Burgundian grape. Fermented and aged in barrels with 20% new oak, it displays lively mineral tension alongside refreshing citrus notes. Remarkable salinity on the palate lends energy and length to the finish. 

Coteaux Bourguignons "Les Paquiers"

Made from 100% Pinot Noir grown in the same Les Paquiers lieu-dit, this red wine comes from vines planted in 1968 (70%) and 2014 (30%) on clay-limestone soils with marl. Fully destemmed, the grapes undergo five days of cold maceration, followed by one to two weeks of fermentation in stainless steel tanks with daily pump-overs. Aged in older barrels, this Coteaux Bourguignons offers a light, delicate expression of Vosne Pinot Noir. 

Nuits-Saint-Georges "Les Fleurières"

This cuvée comes from Pinot Noir vines more than 80 years old in the Les Fleurières climat, at the foot of the slope just below Premier Cru Pruliers, south of Nuits-Saint-Georges. Iron-rich soils give this characterful red wine structure and depth. Fully destemmed and aged partly in new barrels, this Nuits-Saint-Georges reveals an elegant floral nose enhanced by subtle toasted notes. 

Gevrey-Chambertin "Les Crais"

Added to the range in 2023, this Gevrey-Chambertin comes from a 0.15-hectare plot acquired through SAFER in the Les Crais climat. Located on the plains, this gravelly terroir generally produces more elegant, mineral wines. 

Vosne-Romanée Village

Starting with the 2025 vintage, Vincent Paindavoine will make a Vosne-Romanée Village under his own name from the family plots. He plans to create two distinct cuvées: one from the Champs Perdrix climat and the other a blend of the Ravioles and Maizières climats. These wines will be the estate’s flagships, offering its fullest expression of Vosne-Romanée’s legendary terroir.

Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru "Les Beaux Monts"

From 2025, the range will also include a Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru Les Beaux Monts, a prestigious climat known for producing some of Burgundy’s finest Pinot Noirs. This premium cuvée will represent the culmination of decades of patient work by Vincent and his family. Situated high on the slope, this Premier Cru combines structured power with aromatic finesse and needs several years of aging to reveal its full complexity.
