Domaine du Clair Obscur is a family-run natural wine estate in Corpeau, Burgundy, founded in 2006 by Pierre and Jennifer Clair. Starting with just 0.4 hectares inherited from Pierre's grandfather (planted starting 1955), the domaine has grown to 3.5 hectares across the Cote de Beaune, all farmed biodynamically (Demeter certified). Pierre works by day as chef de culture at Domaine Marquis d'Angerville, while Jennifer runs the cellar — together they produce vibrant, pure Burgundy with zero additives and near-zero sulfites. The domaine name plays on the family name 'Clair' and the Chiaroscuro contrast of light and dark.

Approach

Philosophy

Pierre and Jennifer's production philosophy rests on two convictions: respect for nature through organic and biodynamic viticulture, and respect for wine through the complete absence of oenological products. Whole-cluster fermentation with semi-carbonic maceration, aging 10-18 months in old Burgundian pieces with no fining or filtration. Homeopathic volcanic sulfur keeps total SO2 between 0-20 mg/L.
