About the place
Domaine Lejeune stands on the church square of Pommard, in a house known as La Confrérie. The estate has belonged to the Jullien de Pommerol family since 1783 and farms 8.7 hectares, certified organic, across nine appellations, most of them in Pommard. It receives visitors by appointment for cellar and vineyard visits and tastings.
What you will see
Visits can include the vines, the winery and the cellar, and the domaine shows a small display of old winemaking tools before a tasting of its wines, mostly Pommards. Groups of up to 15 can be received.
History
The Jullien de Pommerol family has owned the domaine since 1783, a few years before the French Revolution. In 2023 the estate was taken over by the part of the family that wished to carry on, and it is now managed by Louis de Belleroche.
Its vines are certified organic, and the team's stated aim is to bring out each terroir while respecting the soil, the plant and the people who work it.

Tips for your visit
