El Les 1er Ponts 2017 es un vino tinto elaborado por Yann Durieux bajo la marca Recrue des Sens, situado en la región de Borgoña, Francia. Se embotella como Vin de France y su origen se localiza en Curtil-Vergy, en las Hautes-Côtes de Nuits. La uva utilizada es exclusivamente Pinot Noir, procedente de viñedos con edades comprendidas entre los 30 y más de 100 años, siendo las parcelas más antiguas de la propiedad plantadas por el abuelo de Durieux.

La producción se desarrolla en un entorno de aproximadamente 400 metros de altitud, con suelos de caliza jurásica y arcilla, orientados al suroeste. La viticultura es certificada como ecológica y biodinámica, con una producción baja de aproximadamente 10 hectolitros por hectárea. En la bodega, la vendimia se realiza manualmente con racimos enteros. La vinificación se basa en una fermentación espontánea utilizando levaduras indígenas y una maceración extendida de un mes. La crianza tiene lugar en piezas borgoñonas usadas, sin añadir sulfuroso ni proceder a clarificación o filtración, lo que sitúa al vino dentro de la categoría de vinos naturales.

Se trata de una elaboración austera y de carácter auténtico, donde la antigüedad de la vid y el respeto absoluto por el proceso natural definen su perfil.

Learn more about Yann Durieux

Yann Durieux is a fourth-generation vigneron from Nuits-Saint-Georges who made his first solo harvest at the age of thirteen. He spent the following decade training: first at Clos des Vignes du Maynes, where Julien Guillot introduced him to biodynamics, and then ten years as head of viticulture at Domaine Prieuré-Roch, managing parcels including Clos-de-Bèze under the guidance of Henri-Frédéric Roch — co-owner of Romanée-Conti — who encouraged him to vinify his first two personal vintages in 2008 and 2009 in the Prieuré-Roch cellars. In 2010 he founded Recrue des Sens with his partner Christela, reclaiming his grandfather's abandoned vines in Villers-la-Faye and Messanges.

The domaine now works around 15 hectares at 400 metres altitude in the Hautes-Côtes de Nuits, with Domaine de la Romanée-Conti as a neighbour in the vineyards below and the Abbaye de Saint-Vivant — the historical birthplace of DRC's Romanée-Saint-Vivant — on the horizon. Soils are clay-limestone, with Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Aligoté vines of forty years and older.

In the vineyard he farms biodynamically; in the cellar the rule is "nothing added, nothing removed": wild-yeast fermentations, whole-cluster maceration, foot pigeage only, no fining, no filtration, zero or minimal sulfur depending on the vintage. Most wines are bottled as Vin de France — a deliberate choice to escape AOC restrictions and work with full creative freedom. The range runs from the skin-macerated Aligoté of Les Ponts Blancs to the Tête de Ponts, the only wine in the house aged in 100% new oak for two years. Widely called the Maverick of Burgundy, his wines have reached cult status among collectors and natural wine enthusiasts worldwide.
