DOMAINE ROSSIGNOL-CORNU ET FILS Volnay 2018

DOMAINE ROSSIGNOL-CORNU ET FILS

The Rossignol-Cornu Estate was born from the union of the Rossignol and Cornu families.
The vines in Volnay, Pommard and Meursault came from the Rossignol family, which has lived in Volnay for several generations. Instead the vines at Pernand-Vergelesses are the heritage of the Cornu family.

Didier Rossignol succeeded his father to become the head of the approximately 5-ha estate in 1989.
Julien, his eldest son, joined him recently: he wants the family activity to continue.

The vines, 40 years old on average, are cultivated in accordance with each appellation’s specific requirements and in an integrated way.
