Maurice Gavignet Pommard 2021

Maurice Gavignet is a family-owned winery in Burgundy, France, with a history spanning four generations. Founded by Honoré Gavignet in Nuits Saint Georges, he was born in 1879 and worked at the Domaine de la Romanée-Conti until 1920 before settling in Nuits-St-Georges.

 Today, the domaine continues to be known for its Pinot Noir wines, particularly those from the Côte de Nuits region. Over the last decade, the Domaine has grown with vineyards on the Côte de Beaune at Monthelie, Santenay, Savigny les Beaune and Pommard. This is how the Domaine becomes one of the pearls of the Côte d'Orien vineyard.

Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Pinot Noir from the Pommard village of Cote de Beaune, Burgundy
