DOMAINE DE VILLAINES-VISERNY
The culture of the vine in Auxois dates back to the Middle Ages. In the 250 th century there were hectares of vineyards in the municipalities of Villaines-les-Prévôtes and Viserny, mainly for family consumption. But phylloxera, the First World War, and then the exodus from rural areas endanger vine culture. In the Auxois, "we no longer raise wine… but cattle". Relaunched by a group of friends in 1990, the Coteaux vineyards of the Auxois now spread over 10 hectares. Since the end of 2013, Domaine Viserny has been acquired by the Maison Louis Latour. If the work of the vines remains traditional, the vines and breeding are now carried out by the Maison Fèbvre house in Chablis. The various wines offered, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Grey, like the Pearl of the Auxois, retain the typical of their land but will be able to win even more. You can always find the wines from the Domaine de Viserny in the Magasins'Vert stores on the Côte d'Or, but also right now throughout the distribution network of Latour, in France and abroad.
