The Domaine Guillemard-Clerc is located at Puligny-Montrachet, a small village in the Burgondy Region - a territory delimited by the cities of Lyon and Chablis - which is the place of one of the most renowned white wine in the world.
Since the year 1990 when it was about half an acre wide, the Domaine Guillemard-Clerc has kept growing through the addition of new parcels with the prestigious name such as Clos des Coucherias - Beaune 1er Cru, Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru or more recently Les Folatières under the Appellation Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru to cover an area of 8.5 hectares today. This increase in areas was accompanied by investments in equipment (new vat room, pneumatic press, etc.).
We develop and improve the cultivation of vines in ways that are environmentally friendly or sustainable. They are plowed (subsoiling) at least once a year so that the rainwater penetrates easily into the ground so as not to favor erosion.
