Domaine Jean-Marc Vincent

In the heart of a somehow forgotten village in the famous Côte de Beaune, there's a discreet yet highly regarded destination for discerning wine enthusiasts: Jean-Marc Vincent in Santenay. Son of a textile engineer, raised in the city, Jean-Marc didn't initially envision to become a winemaker. He earned his oenology degree in 1996 and took over the family estate of 3.5 hectares with his wife, Anne-Marie. The vineyards weren't in good condition with many missing vines, but they took on the challenge and set out to restructure the vineyard by observing the plant and the life surrounding it.
