Adored by the most renowned Michelin-starred chefs, Denis Jeandeau had become a sensation. Régis Marcon, Le Pré Catelan, Lameloise, l’Arpège, l’Ambroisie, and Guy Savoy, to name just a few, featured his wines on their menus. Rightfully awarded two stars by the RVF guide for several years, he was considered one of the most outstanding talents of his generation.

We were deeply shaken by his sudden passing this summer, as over the years he had become a friend and close associate of Ventealapropriete.

Given our relationship, built from his early days, we were deeply honored when his family entrusted us with the distribution of the last bottles he produced.


Very much in demand since our last sale, which convinced Burgundy amateurs everywhere, our long-lasting partnership and friendship with this wonderful winemaker has enabled us to score some more allocations.
