TRADITION AND MODERNITY
Built in the 15th century, the Château de Duillier is tucked away in the heart of a wine-growing estate that has been the property of the Humbert family for 3 generations.
Everything is done at the castle, from the cellaring through to the bottling. In the wine cellar, which was modernised in 1986, vinifies 14 different grape varieties are vinified to satisfy the clientele.
The estate’s decision to pick and harvest the grapes by hand is a deliberate choice that has been handed down from one year to the next. This not only preserves the integrity of the harvested grapes, but also creates a unifying atmosphere.
Today, Sophie and Guillaume Humbert manage the estate’s 20 hectares of vineyards, overseeing both the winemaking and the marketing of the wines. They warmly welcome you and are happy to assist you in selecting your wines.
