Jayer Gilles

Domaine Jayer-Gilles is an 11-hectare (27-acre) Burgundian wine estate situated in the village of Magny-les-Villers in the Côte d'Or, between the Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Nuits and Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Beaune appellations. Domaine Jayer-Gilles also produces one premier cru and one village-level wine from its two vineyard plots in Nuits-Saint-Georges: Les Damodes and Les Hauts Poirets. This core wine range is bolstered by a range of regional red and white wines from the Hautes Côtes de Nuits, Hautes Côtes de Beaune, Bourgogne Aligoté and Bourgogne Passe-tout-grains appellations. The domaine's wine range is dominated by red wines based on Pinot Noir. After harvest the grapes are completely destemmed and fermented with native yeasts in cement vats. The wines are then aged for approximately 18 months in new oak casks without racking, fining or filtration.
