Domaine Jérôme Galeyrand Description
Originally from the Loire, Jérôme does not come from a winemaking family. He worked for eight years in the food industry. Then, after harvesting for a couple of years at Domaine Alain Burguet in Gevrey-Chambertin as of 1996, became inspired and motivated to embark on his own estate project, and so enrolled at the wine institute in Beaune. In 2002, he bought his first vineyard plot (a miniscule 0.05 hectares!) and carried out his own vinification that September. Since then, Jérôme expanded the holdings to five hectares of vines and harvests every year with a group of well-trained friends.
Vinification takes place in a small winery at his home. His goal is terroir transparency. Jérôme’s wines are precise, refined and elegant, beautifully perfumed, positively delicious. He produces roughly 2,000 cases a year, based on vintage conditions, of course.
Vinous: 89 Points
The 2023 Côte de Nuits-Villages Blanc is the first crop from vines planted in 2019, including a small number of Pinot Blanc and Chardonnay Rosé vines. On the nose, one can sense an almost muscat-like tincture that lends another dimension to the aromatics. The palate is well balanced with a waxy texture. It's quite pithy with good extract and hints of white peach and nectarine interlacing the finish. This is a fine debut.
