So the name Lejeune remained, even though the Jullien de Pommerol family steered its fortunes for a long time. Founded in 1783, the estate passed from aunts to nieces over five generations. In the former monastery of the Saint Sacrement brotherhood, which was secularised after the Revolution, stands one of the oldest open wooden vats in Burgundy \u2013 encircled by 17 hoops of white birch. Here, grapes are still trodden by foot. The domaine has been organically certified since 2021, and since 2023 Louis de Belleroche has been managing the 8.7 hectares \u2013 with respect for tradition and the ambition to reveal Pommard\u2019s Premiers Crus in all their depth.\n\n

Venduta come bene ecclesiastico dopo la Rivoluzione francese, nel 1793, la propriet\u00e0 fu acquistata da Maxime Lejeune, che la ampli\u00f2 fino a 50 ettari. Le divisioni ereditarie ridussero il patrimonio a sei ettari, prima che la famiglia Jullien de Pommerol lo riportasse a dieci. Fran\u00e7ois Jullien de Pommerol, professore di enologia al Lyc\u00e9e Viticole di Beaune, plasm\u00f2 la tenuta dal 1977 con precisione scientifica e lavoro manuale tradizionale. Il genero <strong>Aubert Lefas<\/strong> prosegu\u00ec su questa strada, con una leggerezza che diede ai vini una nuova eleganza.\n\n<img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-94251 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lebendigeweine.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/lejeune-keller.jpeg\" alt=\"Cantina storica della Domaine Lejeune\" \/>\n\n<h2>Il tino di legno pi\u00f9 antico della Borgogna<\/h2>\n\nNella cantina della Domaine si trova un <strong>tino di legno aperto<\/strong>, cerchiato da 17 anelli di betulla bianca: il pi\u00f9 antico del suo genere in tutta la regione. Qui la fermentazione avviene per <strong>mac\u00e9ration semi-carbonique<\/strong>: dal 20 al 40 per cento di grappoli interi viene pigiato con i piedi, e il mosto comincia a fermentare al di sopra delle vinacce. Tre o quattro settimane di contatto, poi affinamento in botti con al massimo il 20 per cento di legno nuovo. N\u00e9 chiarifica n\u00e9 filtrazione, solo una leggera solfitazione.

L'alto contenuto di ossido di ferro colora di rosso il suolo e conferisce ai vini la loro caratteristica profondit\u00e0. Il Pommard 1er Cru \u201eLes Poutures\", grazie alla maggiore componente argillosa, si mostra pi\u00f9 pieno e pi\u00f9 scuro, mentre il <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lebendigeweine.de\/it\/lejeune-pommard-1er-cru-les-argillieres-aoc-2019\/\">Pommard 1er Cru \u201eLes Argilli\u00e8res\u201c<\/a> fa da contrasto con fragolina di bosco, amarena e una vena fresca e salina.
