Maison Maurice Gavignet

Burgundy

Founded in the 19th century, Maurice Gavignet is the birthchild of Honore Gavignet, winemaker at Domaine de la Romanee Conti. It is currently run by Arnaud Gavignet, 3rd generation winemaker in the family.

A specialist in the Nuit Saint Georges appellation, the plots of Nuits Saint Georges, Nuits Saint Georges 1er Cru “Les Chaignots” and Morey Saint Denis 1er Cru “Les Millandes” were first acquired.

Sustained demand leads Maurice GAVIGNET to continue their acquisitions. These are the plots of Burgundy Pinot Noir, Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Nuits at a place called “Les Dames Huguette” and Gevrey Chambertin which complete the appellations of the Domaine.

Finally, the Domaine has enriched itself in the last decade with vineyards on the Côte de Beaune in Monthelie, Santenay, Savigny les Beaune and Pommard. This is how the Domaine becomes one of the pearls of the Côte d'Orien vineyard.
