GIVRY 1ER CRU CLOS FROM THE CELLIER TO THE MONKS 2019
The Cellier aux Moines is made up of a set of historic buildings dating from 1130, a vast Cistercian cellar, a house and its outbuildings, which dominate Givry and have stood the test of time. It was the vineyard of the Monks of the Abbey of La Ferté for seven centuries, until the French Revolution. Then it was the property of the same family for two centuries, before being acquired and restored in 2004 by Philippe and Catherine PASCAL and their three children, Camille, Marguerite and Alexis.
The Domaine du Cellier aux Moines is one of the oldest wine estates in Burgundy. Established around 1130 in Givry by Cistercian monks, it is made up of a Cellar, always surrounded by its Clos de vignes for nine centuries.
The Clos du Cellier aux Moines is a Premier Cru Classé of Givry, today covering 13 hectares, as in the time of the Monks. The Domaine du Cellier aux Moines has 5 hectares, perfectly exposed in the middle and top of the hill, surrounding the historic Cellar. Enclosed above the Clos du Cellier, is another tiny 27-acre enclosure surrounded by very thick walls, forgotten since the phylloxera crisis. It was replanted in 2010 and named Clos Pascal.
In 2015, Guillaume Marko joined the field as technical manager, vines and wines. Holder of a DNO (national oenology diploma) from the University of Dijon, Guillaume did his apprenticeship in major areas of the Côte de Nuits.
After a scientific training in biology, his winegrowing history begins with the chance of encounters, according to the internships and the various jobs he has held. Frédéric LEPRINCE knew that one day he would have a business of his own, but first he had to learn, discover, observe and do.
For about twenty years, he discovered all the facets of the profession. Vineyard work in Beaujolais vintages, the art of Bordeaux blend, purchase of grapes and vinification from great terroirs in Burgundy ... all these moments will be decisive in that each will bring their stone to their House, step by step.
Still marked by their spirit and their know-how, here are some decisive meetings of its first life.
Frédéric LEPRINCE settled for ten years in Nantoux, a small wine-growing village in the Hautes-Côtes de Beaune, where he had the chance to buy an old farmhouse, a heritage witness to a time not so distant 'we lived in near autarky in the heights. A barn transformed into a cellar, a cool cellar which was no doubt used to store vegetables, an old bread oven that warms the body and provides a little comfort after a hard day of harvesting ...
