About the Producer Michel Mallard

The Burgundian Domaine Michel Mallard is nestled in the heart of the charming commune of Ladoix-Serrigny, between the emblematic Côtes de Beaune and Côtes de Nuits. Five generations of winemakers have succeeded one another at the head of the domain. Today, it is masterfully run by Maryse and Patrick Mallard, who cultivate their land with passion, combining tradition and modernity. The 11 hectares of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay vines are planted in some of the region’s finest appellations. The winemakers continually question their practices to improve their approach to viticulture. Well aware of the current environmental concerns and with a view to protecting biodiversity, they handle their vines with the utmost respect for the soil. In the winery, vinification involves very little intervention, and sulphur is added in minute quantities to allow the fruit to fully express all its aromas and flavours. The result is a selection of fresh, authentic, fragrant wines perfectly reflecting Burgundy’s delicious grape varieties.
