Domaine Jules Desjourneys is currently under the direction of winemaker Fabien Duperray, whose experience was forged alongside some of the most eminent winemakers of Burgundy, notably the brothers Arnaud Ente and Benoit Ente, Christophe Perrot-Minot, and Jean-Yves Bizot. After acquiring considerable expertise, the desire to create his own wines and his own estate led him to venture into Beaujolais, further south, and subsequently to expand his estate with parcels located in Saint-Véran, Pouilly-Vinzelles and Pouilly-Fuissé, in the Mâconnais. You will therefore find wines from Burgundy and Beaujolais in this category.
