CHRISTOPHE PAUCHARD Les Cras 1er Cru Meursault 2018

CHRISTOPHE PAUCHARD

Christophe Pauchard’s estate is situated in the charming little village of Cirey, just outside Nolay in the heart of the Hautes-Côtes de Beaune.

The property has developed gradually over the years and today we cultivate an area of 10 hectares.

The Domaine de la Confrérie was established in 1991 (one of our parcelles or plots is called La Confrérie).
Prior to this date, the estate focused on the “Hautes-Côtes de Beaune” appellation, but since then it has expanded to include Meursault, Meursault premier cru (white wines) and Volnay Santenots premier cru (reds).
