Producer Information

Domaine Michle & Patrice Rion is a wine producer and ngociant based in the Cte de Nuits region of Burgundy. It specializes in the production of red wines made from Pinot Noir, but also makes a pair of white wines. One of these is a negociant Bourgogne Chardonnay, while the other estate=grown wine is more unusual. The Nuits-Saint-Georges Les Terres Blanches is Chardonnay-predominant but around ten percent of the 1.3-hectare (3.2-acre) parcel is planted to Pinot Blanc. Today, the estate farms a total of 6 hectares (15 acres) of vineyards located primarily in Nuits-Saint-Georges and Chambolle-Musigny. Domaine Michle & Patrice Rion owns eight monopoles from which it produces the majority of its premier cru wines, the most significant being the Nuits-Saint-Georges Clos Saint-Marc monopole. The estate also purchases grapes from neighboring Burgundian winegrowers.
