This family business was created in the 1920s by Claude Seignuret (the great uncle of Guillaume) the vineyards grow in several different plots that are scattered around the villages of Bussières, Serrières, and Fuissé. The Father and son team of Philippe and Guillaume Trébignaud are the third and fourth generations of this family business. They firmly believe that the only way to grow good grapes is to work with living soils plowed regularly and not treated by any form of chemicals or pesticides. The ten hectares have an average vine age of sixty years.
The vines grow deep into the limestone bedrock and the wines display vibrant and racy characteristics which is a true representation of the local terroir. Wines are vinified and aged in stainless steel or Burgundian oak barrels. The wines are gently filtered before bottling if required, however as a general rule, minimal intervention is practiced. In 2018 the domaine began its transition to become organically certified through EcoCert.

Wine Region:
Burgundy
Burgundy is but a small land-locked region in the east-central part of France, but it is highly regarded in the world of wines. “Burgundies” (or wines hailing from this region) are usually reds made from pinot noir grapes and whites made from chardonnay grapes.
The climate is continental, bearing cold winters and hot summers. Vintages are somewhat more important here because of unpredictable weather—rains, hail, and frost are can all happen during harvest time.
Burgundy is a terroir-driven region (as opposed to producer-driven Bordeaux). Classifications are focused on geography—with 400 types of soil, a great deal of attention is given to the area of origin. This is made obvious by their wine labels, where appellations are more prominent than producers.
There are 5 primary wine growing areas where more than 100 appellations are present (the highest count of AOCs in France).
