Philippe Livera (Domaine Des Tilleuls) was founded in Gevrey-Chambertin in the 1920s as Domaine des Tilleuls, a reference to the linden trees, called “tilleuls” in French, which were growing abundantly on the property. Philippe Livera took over from his father in 1986 and today the domaine is run by his son, Damien. The 22-acre estate sold its grapes to negociants for many decades, but today most of the grapes are used for the domaine’s label. Domaine Philippe Livera has a Grand Cru parcel in Chapelle Chambertin, as well as village parcels in Gevrey-Chambertin and Cotes de Nuits.
