Bruno Clavelier

Bruno might be one of the friendliest winemakers in Burgundy. Always smiling, a former rugby player is one of the most well-thought makers of extremely elegant wines in Vosne-Romanee.

The family plots, which are the basis of the estate, are not the only heritage. For 10 years Bruno Clavelier shared the sense of observation and all the unique experiences of his grandfather Joseph, who accompanied him in his early days. Over the years, he built a new winery and equipped it, taking advantage of the qualitative progress of modern equipment (pneumatic press, sorting table, etc.). He built storage and bottling cellar and enlarged the aging cellar to accommodate barrels from two vintages. In 2003, his wife Valérie officially joined the domain. A few new plots have been added to the family vines to form an estate that today covers 6.5 hectares.

All of the estate’s production is bottled. Bruno Clavelier is one of the few to make a specific cuvée for each locality, called climat in Burgundy, for each of its appellations villages of Vosne-Romanée. Fifteen vintages are thus marketed directly by the estate throughout the world and mainly intended for professionals.
