About Winery
Domaine Drouhin-Laroze, founded in 1850 in Gevrey-Chambertin, is a sixth-generation family estate that has grown into one of Burgundy’s hidden gems, with holdings in some of the region’s most prestigious Grand Cru vineyards.
Jean-Baptiste Laroze began cultivating vines in Gevrey-Chambertin in 1850, and the domaine was later expanded by his son Félix. In 1919, Félix’s daughter Suzanne married Alexandre Drouhin, who owned vineyards in Chambolle-Musigny, and the estate became known as Drouhin-Laroze. Over the decades, successive generations have preserved and expanded the domaine, which now encompasses about 11.5 hectares of vineyards stretching from Vougeot to Brochon. Its portfolio includes renowned Grand Crus such as Chambertin-Clos de Bèze, Latricières-Chambertin, Chapelle-Chambertin, Bonnes-Mares, Clos de Vougeot, and Musigny, alongside highly regarded Premier Cru sites like Lavaut Saint-Jacques and Clos Prieur. Today, the estate is run by siblings Nicolas and Caroline Drouhin, representing the sixth generation, who bring fresh energy and precision to the domaine while maintaining its tradition of careful vineyard selection, gentle extraction, and aging in cold underground cellars. This combination of heritage and innovation has secured Drouhin-Laroze’s reputation as a producer of elegant, terroir-driven wines that balance youthful approachability with long-term complexity.
