History of Domaine de la Pousse d’Or

The site’s history is inseparable from Volnay’s. As early as the 12th century, under the authority of the dukes of Burgundy, an enclosed vineyard bore the name Bousse d’Or, literally “golden earth” in Middle French, a name the estate inherited over the centuries. The vaulted cellars, built by Cistercian monks, immerse visitors in an almost monastic atmosphere, while the manor house, built in the 16th century and remodeled under Louis XIV, still overlooks the village. In the 19th century, the property belonged first to Jacques-Marie Duvault-Blochet and then to Monsieur Delaplanche-Garnier, and formed part of a larger holding that also included Romanée-Conti and Clos de Tart.

The modern estate was founded in 1964, when Gérard Potel brought together the house and the vineyard that gives it its name. For more than thirty years, he raised Volnay wines to the highest level. After his death in 1997, Patrick Landanger took up the mantle. A passionate engineer and industrialist, he invested heavily in both the vineyard and the cellars, rebuilt a winery carved into the hill that operates entirely by gravity, and made numerous acquisitions in the Côte de Beaune and then the Côte de Nuits. His son Benoit joined him in winemaking in 2013 and took charge of the estate in 2018, continuing its conversion to biodynamic farming and expanding the range into Gevrey-Chambertin and Flagey-Echezeaux.

Terroirs and Vineyards of Domaine de la Pousse d’Or

The vineyard reads like an anthology of Burgundy’s great terroirs. In Volnay, thin, stony clay-limestone soils on the slope produce reds of airy finesse, especially from the estate’s three monopoles: Clos de la Bousse d’Or, Clos d’Audignac and the prestigious Clos des 60 Ouvrées, a historic enclave nestled in the heart of Les Caillerets. In Pommard, the more iron-rich soils of Les Jarolières bring structure and depth. Farther south, Santenay offers generous Bathonian limestone, while Le Cailleret in Puligny-Montrachet yields one of the Côte de Beaune’s tautest white premiers crus, immediately beside Montrachet.

In the Côte de Nuits, the estate farms exceptional plots in Chambolle-Musigny (Les Amoureuses, Les Charmes, Les Groseilles and Bonnes-Mares), Morey-Saint-Denis (Clos de la Roche), Gevrey-Chambertin (La Perrière and Charmes-Chambertin) and Flagey-Echezeaux. On the hill of Corton, the marls of Clos du Roi and Les Bressandes yield powerful, mineral wines. The entire vineyard is farmed biodynamically, without synthetic chemicals, with careful plowing, rigorous green harvesting and deliberately low yields to concentrate the fruit and preserve the identity of each climat.

Winemaking at Domaine de la Pousse d’Or

Winemaking here follows a philosophy of thoughtful minimal intervention. The grapes are harvested by hand, sorted mechanically and then manually, before being almost entirely destemmed. About a week of cold pre-fermentation maceration precedes slow fermentation with native yeasts alone, with gentle extraction designed to preserve the fruit and freshness of the Pinot Noir. The entire winery operates by gravity, without pumps, thanks to a vat room built into the hillside and connected by underground passages to the original Cistercian cellars.

The wines age on fine lees for around eighteen months, including twelve in French oak barrels, with a measured proportion of new oak, generally between 20 and 35% depending on the cru’s standing. Patrick Landanger even designed his own barrel-topping devices to make topping up easier and limit oxidation. Sulfites are kept to an absolute minimum, and the wines are bottled without fining or filtration, giving them a silky texture, precise aromatic definition and the ability to age for several decades.

The wines of Domaine de la Pousse d’Or

Volnay 1er Cru Clos de la Bousse d’Or is the estate’s signature wine, from a 2.14-hectare monopole just below the house. It captivates with violet and black cherry aromas, a graceful palate and velvety tannins. Volnay 1er Cru Clos des 60 Ouvrées, a monopole enclosed within Les Caillerets, is the most sought-after cuvée: exceptionally complex, it combines density, vitality and remarkable saline length. Volnay 1er Cru Clos d’Audignac, the third monopole, takes its name from Pierre Clément Daudignac, its owner during the Revolution, and stands out for crystalline red fruit and a peppery finish. Volnay 1er Cru En Caillerets, from the appellation’s most famous climat, emphasizes minerality and tension, with exceptionally fine-grained tannins.

Pommard 1er Cru Les Jarolières provides the range’s robust counterpoint: deep color, notes of black fruit, licorice and spice, and a firm structure that calls for a few years of patience. Santenay 1er Cru Clos Tavannes, from a two-hectare plot on the border with Chassagne-Montrachet, offers an inviting Pinot Noir with sour cherry and forest-floor notes and particularly appealing value for money. Corton Grand Cru Les Bressandes combines power and refinement, with a bouquet of ripe fruit, leather and humus, while Corton Grand Cru Le Clos du Roi, from the top of the hill, is more austere in its youth before revealing a magnificent structure and the ability to age for twenty to thirty years.

In the Côte de Nuits, Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Amoureuses epitomizes Burgundy’s delicacy: floral, ethereal and almost impossibly deep. Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Charmes is fleshier and immediately appealing, with raspberry and rose notes. Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Groseilles is crisp and vibrant, ideal for discovering the appellation. Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru La Perrière, from a leased plot below Mazis-Chambertin, develops aromas of dark berries, crushed stone and smoke, underpinned by fine, structuring tannins.

The Côte de Nuits grands crus sit at the pinnacle of the collection. Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru combines Morey’s power with Chambolle’s finesse in a dense, spicy wine built for very long aging. Clos de la Roche Grand Cru impresses with its mineral depth, notes of truffle and forest floor, and remarkable persistence. Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru, from a plot registered as Mazoyères, stands out for its luscious fruit, opulent texture and immediate elegance. Echezeaux Grand Cru, from the Les Poulaillères climat, offers a spicier, more savory profile with exceptional aromatic distinction.

Among the whites, Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru is the centerpiece of the estate’s Chardonnay range: precise and saline, with spectacular chalky length, it is one of its rarest white wines. Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Le Cailleret, directly beside Montrachet, combines candied citrus, fresh hazelnut and vibrant acidity that will carry it through twenty years of development. Lovers of older vintages can also find two historic estate cuvées on the market: Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Feusselottes, since exchanged for Charmes-Chambertin, and Santenay 1er Cru Les Gravières, once made in both red and white. Both offer valuable insights into the evolution of the La Pousse d’Or vineyard.
