Histoire du domaine
Jacques Seysses founded Domaine Dujac in 1968 after learning the art of winemaking from Gérard Potel at the Domaine de la Pousse d’Or in Volnay during the 1966 and 1967 harvests. He then acquired the Domaine Graillet in Morey-Saint-Denis and renamed it Dujac, a name derived from ‘du Jacques’. His wife Rosalind joined him in this venture after their marriage in 1973 and helped develop the estate. The vineyard, which initially covered around 5 hectares, expanded to 11 hectares in 1977 and then to 15.5 hectares in 2005 following a series of acquisitions. In 1998, their son Jeremy joined the estate, followed by Diana Snowden, who became his wife, in 2001, and then by his brother Alec in 2003. Jacques Seysses handed over the running of the estate to Jeremy and Alec in 2007, whilst Diana Snowden Seysses took charge of the winery. In 2011, the estate obtained organic farming certification. In 2014, it took on the lease of vineyards in Puligny-Montrachet, notably in the Premier Cru vineyards Les Folatières and Les Combettes. The estate now cultivates 17.5 hectares and remains owned by the Seysses family.
