Notes from the Importer: One of their two parcels on this site, located southwest of Sampigny on a hillside that faces the village and the Montagnes des Trois Croix. 2/3rd comes from a four-year-old planting on limestone rock parcel, the rest from older vines on granitic rock. This vineyard is located on the site of an old forest and a good example of the uniqueness of Maranges with its woods and isolated plots.
Hugo Mathurin and Talloulah Dubourg founded Domaine de Cassiopée in January 2020 after seizing an opportunity to take over a unknown domaine in Sampigny-lès-Maranges that included a house and just over 5 hectares of vines, mainly in the Hautes Côtes de Beaune, Maranges, and Bourgogne appellations. After combined experiences at Jean-Marc Roulot, Frederic Mugnier, Clos de Tart and Benjamin Leroux, Hugo and Talloulah's objective was to find a place known to be cold, which could, thanks to climate change, produce fresh wines that they liked to drink.
