About the place
Domaine Bernard Delagrange et Fils is a family estate on the rue du 11-Novembre in Meursault. It occupies the former home of the physician of Charles the Bold, Duke of Burgundy, in the 15th century.

Tastings take place in the cellars, with a wide range of appellations to try, and the visit includes a stroll through the property and its garden.
History
The Delagrange family, growers handing the estate from father to son, settled in Meursault in 1972. They bought a house where the doctor of Duke Charles the Bold had lived in the 15th century, when Burgundy was still an independent duchy. Today Philippe Delagrange runs the domaine.
The house is known for its historic cellar on two levels, built in the local style, where wine was already stored in the time of the dukes. Beside it lie a walled plot of vines, which gives the domaine's red Meursault, and a flower garden.
