Robert & Raymond Jacob

Domaine Jacob is a four-generation-old family estate. The two brothers, Robert and Raymond Jacob, took on the business, after their father, in 1983. Now, 23 years later, Raymond’s son has come to work alongside him. Located in the heart of the Côte-d’Or region, this family-run estate has 12 hectares of vines spread across 11 AOCs. Corton is a magnificent 350-metre-high hill, overlooking the villages of Ladoix-Serrigny, Aloxe-Corton and Pernand-Vergelesses.
