About the Producer Robert Gibourg

Domaine Gibourg, established in 1965, covers four of Burgundy’s key appellations. Since 1999, Sébastien Bidault has been in charge of the nearly six hectares of vines in Côte de Nuits, Côte de Beaune, Gevrey-Chambertin and Chorey-lès-Beaune. The vines grow on climates that differ greatly in altitude, orientation, soil composition and grape varieties. This array of plots produces a wide variety of wines, each reflecting its own unique terroir. In the vineyards, the estate applies the principles of sustainable viticulture. These balanced and sustainable viticulture methods, by reducing the use of chemicals as much as possible, help to preserve the character of the terroir and the quality of the soil. In the winery, the same attention is paid to each stage of the winemaking process, which is completed with as little intervention as possible, to produce typically Burgundian cuvées that are authentic and flavoursome.
