Notes from the Importer: Laurent Bourtourault is at at the helm of Domaine La Varenne, a two-hectacre estate in Burgundy. The vineyards are all located in his village of Culles-les-Roches. The soil makes for a geological mosaic of a terroir
and is the perfect playground for this winemaker. The vines are organic, and the pigs are responsible for the work where a tractor would not be able to go. Laurent’s top priority is the harvest of beautiful, healthy grapes that are picked by hand.
