In 1987 Didier Fornerol learnt the winemaker's work with his father, then continued his apprenticeship in full time at another winery. He became the owner of the whole domain in 1996.
Today, thanks to his know-how, Didier Fornerol performs all vine works with passion: cutting, growing, trellising, harvesting and treatments. Mr. Fornerol controls operations from winemaking to bottling to which he takes great care to get to make you appreciate his wines for his greatest pride.
Because he's a rigorous and demanding man, Didier Fornerol can perpetuate the Burgundy wine's quality tradition.
The domain is occupied by 6 hectares and 50 ares of vineyards located in the Corgoloin village.
Since 2011, The Fornerol’s Domain in Corgoloin (Burgundy), also offers a sparkling wine. The vineyard management is rational control (minimal use of treatment) and a short pruning on young vines is done to limit the performance.
In order to be more efficient and improve the quality of our work, the field has acquired new equipment: a juicer, 2 stainless steel tanks and a conveyor belt.
The harvest time is a moment of friendship and conviviality. The faithful people are present from year to year and we also welcome new people.
During one week, we are a big and beautiful family, and work together in joy, so we can forget back pain and rain.
