Domaine du Clos Frantin, a beautiful 18th century estate, is located in Nuits-Saint-Georges, at the heart of the Côte de Nuits, which is home to some of the world's most rare and prestigious appellations where the Pinot Noir grape thrives. The vineyards cover 7.3 hectares, of which 3.9 are Premier and Grand Crus.
Compost and ploughing have largely replaced the use of fertilisers and herbicides. Respect for the soil, severe pruning, and, if necessary, green harvesting allow us to produce small quantities of high-quality grapes. Our vineyards have been organically certified since 2012, and beginning with the 2018 vintage, all of the estate's wines will bear the certified "organic wine" label.
The winery is outfitted with modern vinification equipment while still adhering to traditional methods. Gravity has largely replaced mechanical operations in order to preserve the quality and aromatic potential of the grapes.
