The Story

Louis Bourdrel is a young winemaker who worked at Chateau Haut-Brion and Chateau de Meursault, and wanted to be close to his family but keep on working with the Burgundy grape varieties. In 2021, him and his partner Chloe Nardin bought the domaine Xavier Reverchon, started in 1899 and whose children did not want to pursue the adventure. The young couple renamed it La Croisee Comtoise, with the desire of carry on Xavier's tradition : the vineyard of 6 hectares, located in Poligny is going to remain the same size. They produce the whole range of Jura classics such as Crémant, local grapes (Trousseau, Poulsard, Savagnin) and traditional ones (Pinot Noir and Chardonnay), but also vin jaune, vin de paille or macvin.
