Domaine de la Pousse is a relatively young yet highly regarded winery located in the heart of the Burgundy region, specifically in the Côte de Nuits. Founded in the early 2000s by the passionate and talented winemaker, Lucien Pousse, the estate was built upon a vision of producing wines that express the true essence of the terroir. Lucien, who comes from a long line of winegrowers, sought to establish a domain that marries traditional methods with a forward-thinking approach to viticulture. Today, the estate is run by Lucien and his family, with a strong commitment to organic and sustainable practices, ensuring the health of the vineyard and the expression of the land in each bottle.
Domaine de la Pousse is best known for its focus on Pinot Noir, which thrives in the estate’s well-positioned vineyards within the famed Côte de Nuits. The domaine’s wines are celebrated for their purity, elegance, and vibrant fruit character, with a subtle yet distinctive minerality that speaks to the unique terroirs of the region. The flagship wine, Pousse de la Pousse, is a stunning Gevrey-Chambertin that combines intensity and finesse, often described as a true reflection of its origin. Lucien’s attention to detail and minimal intervention winemaking philosophy ensures that each vintage is a harmonious blend of nature and craftsmanship, resulting in wines that are both approachable and capable of aging gracefully. Domaine de la Pousse has quickly become a rising star in Burgundy, with a growing reputation for producing wines that are both accessible and of exceptional quality.
