Arnaud Chapuis 〰️

Domaine Arnaud Chapuis, run by Arnaud and Manuela Chapuis, is a small natural wine estate in Échevronne,

Hautes-Côtes de Beaune, Burgundy. Arnaud, a former marble quarry worker in Comblanchien, transitioned towinemaking in 2011 after a BPREA course and worked at prestigious estates like Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, Prieuré Roch, and currently Domaine Chandon de Briailles.

Since 2014, he has farmed 1.5 hectares ofAligoté and Pinot Noir (planted 1930–1970 by his grandfather) and added 1.5 hectares of Pinot Noir in 2018, allorganically certified with minimal plowing and high grass cover. His zero-sulfite, minimal-intervention approachincludes low yields (15–20 HL/ha), hand-harvested grapes, whole-cluster vinification, and manual pressing withan antique vertical press. Cuvées, all labeled Ouverture, include a pétillant naturel Aligoté, direct-press Aligoté,macerated Aligoté (3–4 weeks), and Pinot Noir (whole-cluster, 1-week vatting). Wines are vibrant, pure, and fruit-driven, with unique label art by his son Yohan. Arnaud also produces small batches of cider and poiré. His winesare exported to Europe, the US, and beyond, but quantities are limited due to low yields.
