Domaine Daniel Dugois
ドメーヌ・ダニエル・デュゴワ
Organic, hand-farmed Arbois estate crafting pure Trousseau and Savagnin.
Founded in 1973 by Daniel Dugois in the village of Les Arsures, in the heart of Arbois in the Jura, Domaine Daniel Dugois has grown from two hectares to roughly 10.3 hectares of vines across Les Arsures and Montigny-lès-Arsures. Since 2013 the estate has been run by Daniel's son Philippe, joined by his wife Mélanie in 2014, who have steered the domaine toward organic and natural winemaking: HVE-certified since 2013 and converting to organic (NOP) certification from the 2019 harvest, with hand-harvested grapes, indigenous-yeast fermentation, and minimal intervention in the cellar. The domaine cultivates Jura's signature varieties — Trousseau, Poulsard, Savagnin, and Chardonnay — producing everything from fresh, fruit-forward reds to the region's traditional oxidative specialties: Vin Jaune, Vin de Paille, Macvin du Jura, and Crémant du Jura.
