Located in Milly-Lamartine, the home village of the great poet Alphonse de LAMARTINE (1790-1869), Domaine de la Rochette has been a monopoly of Maison Joseph Burrier since 2016. It comprises 10 hectares planted mainly with Chardonnay (AOP Mâcon-Milly-Lamartine and Mâcon-Bussières) and Pinot Noir (AOP Bourgogne Rouge). The estate also includes a small parcel (17 rows) of old AOP Bourgogne Aligoté vines.
The vineyard is located at about 400 m in altitude, on the slopes and plateau of the ‘Montagne de Cra’ in Milly-Lamartine, as well as on the steep slopes of the Mont Sard in Bussières, covered with a thin layer of brown clay. These remarkable terroirs allow the production of white and red Burgundies of high quality, fine and elegant.
