Founded by Virgile Lignier, the estate spans 10.5 hectares across some of Morey-Saint-Denis' finest vineyard sites, as well as in neighbouring Gevrey-Chambertin and Chambolle-Musigny. With a winemaking history passed down through generations, Virgile Lignier is the driving force behind the domaine’s rise to prominence. His passion for creating exceptional Pinot Noir is matched by a commitment to organic viticulture, which has become the cornerstone of the domaine's approach. Lignier has transformed the family estate into one of the top producers in the Côte de Nuits, known for wines that express the true essence of their terroir while showcasing a balance of finesse, elegance, and structure.

Virgile’s winemaking philosophy is rooted in minimal intervention and the pursuit of purity. By incorporating techniques such as whole-bunch fermentation and reducing the use of new oak, he allows the natural characteristics of each vineyard to shine. The result is wines that are vibrant, complex, and age-worthy, with a precision and energy that reflects both Virgile’s experience and the exceptional terroirs of Morey-Saint-Denis. The domaine’s wines are revered for their clarity, elegance, and ability to evolve gracefully, making them highly sought after by collectors and wine enthusiasts alike.
