JEROME CASTAGNIER CLOS SAINT-DENIS GRAND CRU 2017

The vineyard is 984-1050 feet on a slope above Clos de la Roche on a 0.89 acre plot planted in 1967 and 1995. Biodynamic practices employed in the vineyard, but no certification.

Jerome Castagnier chose a profession as a trumpeter in the Republican Guard rather than take the helm of the family domaine. In 2004, he left Paris and the army to return home to Morey-St-Denis. There he experienced the 2005 harvest alongside his father and grandfather. He is the fifth generation to run the domaine. Jules Séguin was the founder and through passage from the female line and sons-in-law, the family name has changed. Since 2004 the wines have been bottled as Domaine Castagnier.
