Domaine Gérard Julien is located in Comblachien, just south of Nuits Saint Georges and dates back to the late 19th century. As Gérard continued to purchase more holdings in the 70s and 80’s, he was able to grow the estate to roughly 10 hectares with parcels distributed in Nuits Villages, Nuits Saint Georges, and Echézeaux Grand Cru.
Étienne Julien, son of Gérard, assumed control of the estate in 2012 as winemaker. Being the fifth generation of the estate, he is introducing new methods to his winemaking while keeping the vision in line with previous generations, including organic viticulture. These wines exude another level of liveliness and energy. The 2016 vintage is still going strong and will continue to improve for another five-plus years.

A fresh, ripe and layered red berry and earth-suffused nose possesses good density that is matched by the sappy and voluminous flavours that exhibit very good depth and persistence on the well-balanced finale. It would go well with duck, game and beef tenderloin.
