The estate in a few words…

The family estate experienced a significant development in the 80’s with Charles and  Marie-Françoise Audoin, both oenologists. Located in Marsannay-la-Côte, "the golden gate of Côte de Nuits", the estate’s range of wines offers a trip through Côte de Nuits , from Chenove en Clos du Roy, former estate of the Dukes of Burgundy, to Fixin and Gevrey-Chambertin, but also an escapade in Pommard, Côte de Beaune.

We had some outstanding moments of conviviality on the estate, for instance a touching encounter with Czech and Mexican musicians, cultures and traditions, a pure invitation to pleasure. And during my trips I always met wine enthusiasts and bon vivants thanks to a good wine.

We have the chance to make white wines from Aligoté or Chardonnay at the estate with the same passion. Rosé wines made from Pinot Noir that are world-renowned for their typicity, their elegance and their rich mouth, and red wines which get the unique taste of our different "terroirs", it is wonderful !

    Your favourite quality in a woman

    Sincerity, rigour, loyalty, perseverance are qualities that I particularly appreciate in men and women… The elegance and authenticity of feelings, what we are also searching for in tasting… a search for balance and harmony.

    Your best wine-related memory

    I like experimental wines but authenticity and the respect of "terroir", the varietals and the vintage are essential. I despise the overall taste and lifestyle homogenization. The style of a wine should correspond to its region of origin. It is forbidden to misuse such an exceptional grape variety as Pinot Noir for instance. Every year, nature shows a new face, a magnificent one as usual, just take a walk through the vineyard in June. If I could paint a picture of this happiness, with its smells, its aromas, its changing colours.

    Your favourite wine/wine producing area

    The Marsannay area deserves the recognition of a Premier cru rank for its vineyard plots on the mid-slope, same for the rest of the area ; Amongst reds I have a little preference for our Marsannay "les Favieres", a very fruity wine which competes with our spicier Clos du Roy, but a young Marsannay white or rosé gives me lot of pleasure thanks to its aromatic elegance.

    Your motto or favourite quote

    Women are the future of men.
