" Il est un de ces rares domaines à être resté spécialiste de l'appellation Chassagne-Montrachet. "
THE ESTATE
This small family estate has been established in the early 1820s. The latest generation took over in 1990 and the two brothers are working together since that date. Located in the village of Chassagne-Montrachet, the domaine is one of the rare which has remained specialist in its own appellation.
The estate covers today almost 12 ha. The vineyard is divided into Chassagne-Montrachet village appellation (white and red), 8 first crus in white, 2 in red and a tiny parcel of Batard-Montrachet grand cru.
The two brothers are both passionate about viticulture and they put a lot of attention into the vineyard, where most of the tasks are done by hand. They also avoid the use of chemical products and are certified “Lutte raisonnée”; which is a friendly environmental viticulture.
For the moment, only part of the production is bottled at the estate. The rest is sold in bulk early in the season. So, the estate still has an important developing potential.
