Domaine des Tilleuls is an excellent name that is passed on by Burgundy connoisseurs. The 1920 family domaine is located in the heart of the village of Gevrey-Chambertin. It is now Philippe Livera’s son, Damien who runs the domaine. The vineyards are managed in a responsible, sustainable way to minimise the use of external substances. The vines, almost exclusively of Pinot Noir, are covered in grass. Special care is taken for the soil. The domaine has very beautiful plots in the appellations Gevrey village, Fixin, Côtes-de-Nuits-villages and Chapelle-Chambertin. Fermentation is long and all wines are aged in oak barrels for 11 to 18 months.

This grand cru of only 5 hectares is located between Clos-de-Bèze and Chapelle-Chambertin and produces some of the suavest wines in all of Chambertin. Located on the lieu-dit en Gémeaux, the Livéra own only 3,000 square metres of the grand cru, which they mature in 80% new oak from the Rousseau cooper. Only 1,000 bottles are produced.
