The long drive down the autoroute was over, and as we climbed the hill out of the village we caught our first glimpse of the ancient farmhouse, the walls dappled with the ochre tints of high summer. As we pulled into the courtyard, pools of red geraniums flowing from old clay pots lapped at the steps. Hot and tired, we were led into the magnificent cellar that runs the entire length of the house. Here we relaxed as our senses were gradually revived by the wonderful wine and that old French vineyard magic began to weave its delightful spell ...
Originally belonging to a magistrate from Dijon, the vineyard was bought for a life annuity by Fernand and Catherine Chevrot, a charming couple whom we have known for many years. Their sons Pablo and Vincent are now in charge of the winemaking and continue the tradition of meticulous attention to detail, both in the vines and the winery.

In the 12 years of being a ‘partner’ at 3D Wines, we had what was possibly the most memorable vineyard visit at Domaine Chevrot. From the welcome we received at the vineyard, to the quality of their wines to our stay in Mercurey. Fernand, Kaori and Pablo all made us feel so welcome and so passionate about their work, life and being part of 3D Wines. We’ll certainly be back!
