Nestled in the village of Échevronne — right between the famed Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits — Domaine Jean Fery is a family-run Burgundy estate with deep roots. The property has been in the Fery family for generations, and today is headed by the second generation, Frédéric and Laurent Fery, following Jean-Louis’s stewardship.
The vineyards cover a “mosaic” of appellations across Burgundy — reds and whites, villages, premiers and even grand crus. Importantly, the estate has been certified organic since 2011, reflecting a commitment to sustainable viticulture and respect for terroir. In the vineyard and cellar the approach is thoughtful: hand work, minimal mechanization, emphasis on letting the vines and soils express themselves, rather than imposing a heavy-handed house style.
What makes Domaine Jean Fery especially intriguing is the sheer breadth of terroirs under one roof—ranging from lighter limestone parcels to more robust clay-iron soils—which gives the team a remarkable palette of expression. Over the past decade, the domaine’s transition to organic farming and a more restrained approach in the cellar has further elevated the clarity and precision of its wines. It’s a beautiful blend of heritage and innovation: a family deeply rooted in tradition yet unafraid to evolve, guided by a steadfast respect for authenticity and place.
