DESCRIPTION
Domaine LEDUC-FROUIN was founded in 1873. Today the Domaine is managed by Antoine Leduc,Winemaker, and his sister Nathalie, 10 th generation Winemaker.
Antoine was always destined to work in his 30 hectares family estate and he returned there in 1993 after doing his Oenology studies in Bourgogne and Bordeaux.
Combining tradition and modernity, Antoine makes every effort to produce typical, local and subtle wines. The diversity of the soils (Falun, shale, clay) allows him to perform single vineyard winemaking.
