Today, brothers Jean-Philippe and Jean-François, the 15th generation custodians of this historic estate, carry forth its legacy with unwavering dedication. Cultivating their vines across 10 hectares of pristine terroir, including a prized half hectare in Chateau Chalon AOC, the Bourdys adhere to time-honored winemaking traditions. Fermentation and aging occur in ancient barrels, some boasting an impressive 80-year lineage. Renowned for their remarkable library of aged wines, spanning back to 1926 for reds and 1911 (1865 for Chateau Chalon) for whites, Caves Jean Bourdy epitomizes patience and precision in winemaking.
