Founded in 2005, Domaine des Croix is the result of a partnership between the talented young oenologist David Croix and a group of American investors, facilitated by Becky Wasserman. Originally from Montlouis in Touraine, David was already known for modernizing the style at Camille Giroud, a Beaune-based winery. When a vineyard in Beaune became available for purchase, the investors offered to fund it and entrusted David with the opportunity to create a domaine of his own. Over time, David’s dedication and skill have established Domaine des Croix as a benchmark producer in the Côte de Beaune, garnering critical acclaim and a growing reputation among Burgundy enthusiasts.

David Croix’s winemaking is defined by precision, instinct, and a respect for tradition. Combining technical mastery with a flexible approach, he vinifies with minimal intervention, often incorporating whole clusters and using low levels of sulfur. His methods include classical techniques such as manual punch-downs and élevage in barrels, with some cuvées maturing in foudres. The result is wines of exceptional elegance and complexity-aromatic, refined, and expressive of their terroir. Whether from Beaune premiers crus or the grands crus of Corton and Corton-Charlemagne, David’s wines are celebrated for their approachability in youth and their potential for aging, earning them a place among the finest in Burgundy.
