Since the inception of the domaine in 1880 by François Dupraz, the Dupraz family has remained established in Le Reposoir building upon their estate. Michel Dupraz, grandson to François, brought the professional business side to the domaine, planting a third of the vines still cultivated today while establishing a strong reputation of the region. Currently, the 5th generation, Marc Dupraz, is in ownership of the domaine with his sons, Jérémy and Maxime, working with passion and respect as the winemakers running all operations. Over these past few years, Jérémy and Maxime have worked to reinstate elements of their family history, starting with reclaiming Michel’s former cellars and their uncle Jean Dupraz’s vineyards in 2014. Today, Domaine Dupraz hosts 18.5 ha of vineyards on the same slopes where François began, in the lieu dit of Reposoir.
