DOMAINE DE LA POUSSE D'OR
Volnay, France
La Pousse d’Or is a storied estate in the Côte de Beaune, and a contender for the title of best Volnay. Its roots date back to the eleventh century holdings of the Duc de Bourgogne, but its modern renaissance began with Gerard Potel, an enormously talented wine-maker who ran it from the mid 1960’s until his untimely death in 1997.
At just that moment Patrick Landanger was looking to buy an estate in the south of France. He had made his fortune in surgical equipment, and while the Burgundy domaine was more than he had anticipated taking on, he jumped at the opportunity to acquire the legendary property. Not only that he immediately started acquiring more land, including parcels in Chambolle, Bonnes Mares and Clos de la Roche. He also undertook a top to bottom re-organization of the cellars, and moved toward organic and biodynamic practices in the vineyards. Today the estate is rightly considered one of the jewels of the Côte d’Or.
