David Duband took over the winemaking and custodianship of his father’s small holding of vines in the Côte de Nuits, aged 20, in 1991. He has since added premium parcels in Vosne-Romanée, Échezeaux and Chambertin, two old Grand Cru vineyard sites in Gevrey-Chambertin and Morey-Saint-Denis and former Jacky Truchot owned sites in Clos de la Roche and Charmes-Chambertin.  As a result of stunning sites and equally impressive winemaking prowess, the David Duband label has become one of Burgundy’s most sought after.

With the inaugural vintage in 2020, Les Terres de Phileandre wines are produced at the Duband winery in Chevannes. Premium fruit is sourced via long-term partnerships with trusted growers in Fixin, Marsanny and Savigny-lès-Beaune. Farming organically and with minimal sulphur addition in the winery, there is a focus on whole-bunch fermentation and a low percentage of new oak maturation. The wines are strikingly pure as a result, with stunning depth and intensity, yet a seamless marriage of freshness and elegance; all without the sacrifice of the origins of each parcel of grapes. The wines are expressive of unique site and season; beautifully textured; highly complex; well-structured and impeccably balanced.
