Talloulah et Hugo Mathurin
Talloulah Debourg and Hugo Mathurin, children of the 1994 vintage, studied oenology in Bordeaux. Yet if Bordeaux was far from their favourite wine, both were deeply drawn to Burgundy, where the winemaking philosophy closely matched their own. Hugo went to Domaine Roulot, then spent two years at Domaine Mugnier. As for Talloulah, she started at Clos de Tart and ended up with Marie-Thérèse Chappaz in Switzerland – two completely different schools (which we love here at Pur Jus). It wasn’t until 2020 that the talented couple finally got to create their own wine, after acquiring five hectares in Sampigny-lès-Maranges, and immediately converting the vines to organics. The couple christened their estate Cassiopée – the same name they hope to give to a daughter one day. "The estate is a bit like our first child, and demands even more time than one! But it also refers to the constellation Cassiopeia, and just how much we thank our lucky stars to be together on this project of a lifetime.”
