Nestled in the heart of Pernand-Vergelesses, Domaine Rollin has been crafting exceptional wines for generations. The story began with Raymond Rollin, a dedicated vine worker who meticulously cultivated his own parcels alongside his work at another estate. His son, Maurice, took the reins in 1955, establishing the domaine and bottling a portion of the wine. Guided by a passion for sharing and hospitality, Maurice and his wife Christiane expanded the clientele and acquired new vineyards.
In 1976, Rémi, Maurice's son, joined the domaine. Together, they embarked on a journey of growth, planting new vines and constructing facilities to accommodate their expanding production. With Agnès, his wife, Rémi further developed the domaine's international presence, ensuring that their wines were enjoyed worldwide.
Simon, their son, joined the family in 2003, followed by his wife Caroline in 2009. Together, they are committed to preserving the domaine's rich heritage, ensuring the vineyards remain the heart and soul of their enterprise. Domaine Rollin's legacy is one of passion, tradition, and an unwavering dedication to crafting wines that epitomize the elegance and finesse of Pernand-Vergelesses.
