Mineral & rich – Burgundy with youthful talent and quiet confidence!
Just a two-hour drive from Paris lies Domaine Houblin-Vernin in Coulanges-la-Vineuse, in the Yonne, just south of Auxerre. What started in 1988 with barely 1.5 hectares in Migé, grew through the dedication of Jean-Luc Houblin into an estate of 35 hectares today. In 2022, Jean-Luc handed over the reins to the young Valentin Vernin, who is already impressing Burgundy insiders with his fresh vision and down-to-earth craftsmanship.
With the Young Talents Trophy in hand and HVE certification since 2019, this is exactly the kind of hidden talent we look for: gifted, driven, yet humble. Houblin-Vernin’s Burgundies combine mineral purity with satisfying richness – sure to seduce even the most spoiled Burgundy lover.
Houblin-Vernin’s wines balance vivid freshness with subtle depth: aromas of red berries, cherry and a mineral note that echoes the limestone soils around Auxerre. On the palate, they show refined structure, juicy acidity and a lightly spicy, clean finish. An honest Burgundy bringing elegance and pure drinking pleasure in perfect harmony.
✨ Domaine Houblin-Vernin proves that serious Burgundy talent can be found surprisingly close to Paris. A must-discover for wine lovers – exclusively at Bourgognewijn.shop!
