The winemaker

The Producer


Now owned by businessman Stanko Subotic, Maison Louis Max has been working to produce exceptional wines under the direction of Jean François Joliette since 2007. Surrounded by an experienced team and assisted by a renowned technical director since 2014, David Duband, Maison Louis Max produces organic wines of excellence.

Exceptional terroirs


In Burgundy, the vineyard extends over prestigious appellations, such as Chassagne-Montrachet, Meursault, Aloxe-Corton or Nuits-Saint-Georges. In Mercurey, the property also holds the monopoly of the Clos de La Marche, the Premier Cru les Vasées and les Caudroyes. Louis Max also owns exceptional terroirs in Rully in the Corbière appellation, the Château Pech-Latt and in the Côtes du Rhône appellation, the Domaine de la Lyre.

A committed organic viticulture


The vineyard is entirely Ecocert certified and it produces quality organic wines with respect for the terroirs and soils. The Louis Max house has been committed to organic farming since the 90s, it has been a real forerunner in this field.
The teams use horses for ploughing and only use natural fertilizers and indigenous yeasts. Everything is done to limit human intervention as much as possible at all stages of wine production and vineyard cultivation.

The wines


Louis Max Pommard is a red wine made from Pinot Noir typical of the appellation. It is an elegant, well-balanced wine with a rich and very fruity aromatic bouquet. There are notes of pepper, leather and chocolate.

The Cuvée Domaine Louis Max - Mercurey Les Rochelles vintage 2014 is a fresh and crisp white, with aromas of pineapple, apple and pear. It was awarded the Burgondia gold medal in 2016. Made from 100% Chardonnay grown on clay-limestone soils, it benefits from traditional winemaking and is aged in barrels for one year. It can be enjoyed with fish, shellfish or white meats and can also accompany certain cheeses.

Louis Max Côte de Nuits-Villages 2018 is a red wine made from Pinot Noir. It goes wonderfully with spicy dishes, red meats or game, but also with blue-veined cheeses.

Louis Max Mercurey Vieilles Vignes 2018 is a gourmet and balanced wine, with aromas of vanilla and cherry. Made from the best vines of the estate, it benefits from all the know-how of the House with a traditional vinification and then an aging in oak barrels. It is ideal to accompany white meats cooked with cream or roasted red meats.
