Domaine Christophe Violot-Guillemard is a family-run estate based in Pommard, Burgundy, known for its meticulous approach to viticulture and winemaking. While the domaine is primarily associated with Pommard and Volnay, its Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru “Les Damodes” is a standout expression of this renowned terroir. The vineyard, located at the northern edge of Nuits-Saint-Georges, near the border with Vosne-Romanée, sits on gravelly limestone soils at an altitude of approximately 300 meters, lending finesse and structure to the wine.
