Antoine Lepetit de la Bigne, a polytechnician, agricultural engineer and oenologist, was introduced to wine tasting in the 1990s, before taking an interest in biodynamic viticulture. He then turned to viticultural consultancy, helping estates adopt healthier, better quality practices. He worked with Anne-Claude Leflaive from 2007 to 2015.
In 2021, Antoine launched his own production, although it got off to a rocky start when frost limited his grape supplies. He selects his winemaking partners with great diligence, before assuming responsibility for vinification and ageing.
His approach is traditional with long fermentations (up to 6 months), malolactic fermentation, ageing on lees for a year, followed by 3 months in stainless steel vats. In addition, he adds very little sulphur (sometimes as little as 30 mg/L of total SO2) to produce expressive wines right from their youth. Most are unfined, lightly filtered, and matured in a variety of containers including casks, foudres, and porcelain or ceramic amphorae.
He took over one hectare of AOC Bourgogne in Puligny-Montrachet in early 2025, paving the way for his first vinifications of his own grapes.

Just as its name suggests, this red wine stems from young Pinot Noir vines grown in the heart of the Burgundy winegrowing landscape. Cultivated using biodynamic methods, the vines thrive on brown clay soils. The hand-picked grapes are sorted before being transported to the winery. The grapes ferment for a fortnight with 40% whole bunches, punctuated by regular punching down of the cap and pumping over. Some 70% of the wine is subsequently aged in used barrels for ten months, with the remainder matures in amphorae.
This Pinot Noir reveals a dazzling ruby hue. The expressive bouquet reveals aromas of fresh red fruits such as cherry and raspberry, complemented by subtle floral and spicy notes. The lively attack paves the way to a silky texture and a delightful freshness. Fruity flavours mingle with mineral nuances, offering an elegant, well-balanced finish.
