Domaine Humbert
Gevrey-Chambertin
Since 1993, Frédéric and Emmanuel Humbert, cousins of the Dugat family, have been successfully managing the Humbert Frères estate in Gevrey-Chambertin, continuing the family legacy into the fourth generation.
Pierre Yves Humbert has since taken over Frederic's role and now co-manages the winery with his uncle Emmanuel.
Their ownership spans across 7 hectares, situated in the villages of Gevrey-Chambertin and Fixin.
Specializing in Pinot Noir, their esteemed collection includes Bourgogne Rouge Côte d’Or, Gevrey-Chambertin village, the premier crus of Poissenot and Estournelles Saint-Jacques, and the revered Charmes-Chambertin Grand cru.
Annually, they produce between 30,000 to 40,000 bottles.
