Its recent history begins with Marie Bourgogne, who married Émile Claude Rebourgeon; their two sons, Henry and Michel, both became growers in Pommard, and Michel took over part of the estate in 1964. In 1995 Michel's daughter Delphine and her husband Stephen settled on the domaine, and with her brother they bought more vines in 1998 and 2004. The family does most of the vineyard work itself. It uses no herbicides and ploughs the soil, partly with a horse; on the premier cru plots all the work is by hand, ploughing is by horse only and treatments are carried on the back. The grapes are destemmed, sorted berry by berry, given about a week of cold soaking, and the wine runs down by gravity into barrels for 12 to 18 months. ## What you will see In the caveau you can taste the range, from regional Bourgogne to Pommard premiers crus such as Les Rugiens, Les Arvelets, Les Charmots and Les Pézerolles, Volnay premiers crus Les Brouillards and La Carelle sous la Chapelle, and Beaune premier cru Les Chouacheux. A small négociant range completes the estate's own wines. ## Planning your visit Allow 30 minutes to an hour. The caveau is open every day, preferably by appointment, and the family posts its current hours on its Google listing. It is on the place de l'Europe, in the centre of Pommard, a few steps from the Château de Pommard. ## Did you know? On one young premier cru plot the family grows vines en échalas: each vine tied to its own stake, closely planted and without wires, the old Burgundian way, so that all the work is done by hand. ## Around Domaine Michel Rebourgeon What to combine with Domaine Michel Rebourgeon on the same day, nearest first. ### Villages - [Pommard](https://www.cote-privee.com/villages/pommard) (1 km away): A red-wine village between Beaune and Volnay, known for deep, firm Pinot Noir. - [Volnay](https://www.cote-privee.com/villages/volnay) (1 km away): A hillside village high above the vines, loved for the finesse of its red wines. - [Monthélie](https://www.cote-privee.com/villages/monthelie) (3 km away): A small hillside village between Volnay and Meursault, once compared to a village in Tuscany. ### Châteaux - [Château de Pommard](https://www.cote-privee.com/chateaux/chateau-de-pommard) (1 km away): A Régence château of 1726 and a 20-hectare walled vineyard at the entrance to Pommard. - [Château de la Commaraine](https://www.cote-privee.com/chateaux/chateau-de-la-commaraine) (1 km away): A towered château in the heart of Pommard, set in its own walled Premier Cru vineyard. - [Château de Monthelie](https://www.cote-privee.com/chateaux/chateau-de-monthelie) (3 km away): An 18th-century château with a glazed tile roof, home of the Suremain family's wine estate. ### Things to do - [Domaine Lejeune](https://www.cote-privee.com/things-to-do/domaine-lejeune-pommard) (1 km away): A Pommard estate held by the same family since 1783, now farmed organically by a new generation. - [Domaine Michel Lahaye](https://www.cote-privee.com/things-to-do/domaine-michel-lahaye-pommard) (1 km away): A family estate on Pommard's church square, with a tasting room in its old stable and a log fire in winter. - [Domaine Guillaume Baduel](https://www.cote-privee.com/things-to-do/domaine-guillaume-baduel-pommard) (1 km away): A young Pommard domaine run by the sixth generation of a wine family, where some vines are still ploughed by horse. ### Restaurants - [Auprès du Clocher](https://www.cote-privee.com/restaurants/aupres-du-clocher-pommard) (1 km away · 1 MICHELIN star): Pommard's newly starred table, where the butcher's son cooks beside the church - [Le Carmin](https://www.cote-privee.com/restaurants/le-carmin-beaune) (3 km away · 1 MICHELIN star): Christophe Quéant's poised, product-first cooking in a Renaissance house on place Carnot - [Clos du Cèdre](https://www.cote-privee.com/restaurants/clos-du-cedre-beaune) (4 km away · 1 MICHELIN star): A winemaker's mansion by Beaune's ramparts, with a starred kitchen and a cellar of over 1,000 wines ### Events - **Mid-February, on a Sunday** · [Trail de Pommard](https://www.cote-privee.com/events/trail-de-pommard): A winter trail race on gravel tracks and paths through the vineyards of Pommard.
