Lucien Le Moine is a haute-couture trader/farmer maison created by Mounir Saouma and Rotem Brakin, a Lebanese couple. After the husband spent some time in a monastery and a first attempt at the art of making wine, then embarked on enology studies, he created his structure in 1999 to offer wine from the finest terroirs. The name of the maison comes from the nickname that his friends gave him as a result of his education in the Cistercian cloister: "Le Moine", the Monk. Lucien was the name given to him by the monks. Today, he produces 38 different crus, ranging from village wines to grand crus. The vinification and élevage are very precise and well done, as delicately and naturally as possible. A must-see.

The Champ Gain climat is located in the upper part of the Côte d’Or, in the heart of the Puligny-Montrachet appellation. This Premier Cru vineyard is renowned for its light, elegant wines. An easterly exposure provides the vines with plenty of light during the day, providing the ideal amount of sunshine for the grapes to ripen properly. The chalky clay soils, containing a high proportion of pebbles and rock, are the guarantee of the great minerality of the estate’s wines. To preserve this unique and authentic character, the Chardonnay grapes are vinified in the purest Burgundian tradition, with little intervention.
The gold colour reveals a subtle and charming nose characterised by citrus fruit aromas and subtle toasted notes. The slender, slender palate affirms the aromas of the nose, sublimated by a superb mineral structure, leading to a refreshing, slightly acidic finish.
