Domaine Gachot-Monot

Five successive generations have been at the head of this family run estate created around 1890. Situated in Corgoloin on the border of Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune, the estate is today managed by Damien and Liselotte Gachot.

The recent history of the domaine is highlighted by two women who contributed to the domaine’s longevity: Marguerite Monot who ran the vineyard alone from 1950 to 1980 and her only daughter, Marie-Thérèse, who, with the help of her husband Jean-Pierre Gachot, renovated, replanted and gave their name to the Domaine.

After completing his wine studies and with 10 months experience in California, Damien Gachot joined his mother in 1993 working and shaping the domaine to its current form.

Today, the vineyard is made of 18 hectares of parcels spread across the villages of Corgoloin, Comblanchien, Nuits St Georges, Chambolle-Musigny & St Aubin, mainly planted in Pinot Noir.
