ESTATE HISTORY

Domaine Balland-Curtet is above all a friendship story between two families who have a common passion for wine. In 1994, this friendship was sealed by the acquisition of their first vineyard in Volnay.

A Burgundy branch on the side of the Balland family was already owning vineyards in Auxey-Duresses. This consequently favoured the choice of this beautiful wine-growing region.

TERROIR

This eastern-facing parcel is at an altitude of about 230 metres on a limestone soil.

The vineyard comes from the Pinot grape variety and is over 40 years old. Its density is 10,000 feet/ha on a surface area of 27,42 ares.

WINEMAKING

The ageing is carried out in new oak barrels over a period of 12 months in order to reveal the freshness and fruity aroma of the wine.

TASTING & FOOD PAIRINGS

Pairs well with mushroom and truffle risotto, arugula and goat cheese salad.
