2 natural spots in Burgundy, editor-picked by Cork & Curve. All dietary guides in Burgundy.
Recrue des Sens (Yann Durieux) ★ 4.4
Hautes-Cotes de Nuits · Villers-la-Faye, 21700 Cote de Nuits, France
Yann Durieux founded Recrue des Sens in 2010 after a decade at Prieure-Roch. He farms biodynamically and makes low-intervention wines from Aligote and Pinot Noir with native yeasts and no additions, a reference for natural Burgundy.
Tip: Allocations are tiny and move through natural-wine specialists; the Aligote cuvee Love and Pif is the calling card.
Domaine Prieure Roch ★ 4.5
Premeaux-Prissey (Nuits-Saint-Georges) · Villa Denbee, 6 Route Nationale 74, 21700 Premeaux-Prissey, France
Founded by the late Henry-Frederic Roch, former co-director of Romanee-Conti, Prieure-Roch is a low-intervention Cote de Nuits estate working whole-cluster ferments with native yeasts and minimal sulphur across grand and premier cru parcels.
Tip: The wines are cult objects with long waiting lists; the wax-capped bottles are an instant marker of the natural-leaning house style.
