This precious stretch of land covering almost 40 hectares is known for producing some of the best wines of Burgundy, a legacy that has been preserved and perfected over six generations.

Positioned at the heart of the Côte de Nuits, the Domaine Moillard boasts a unique diversity of terroir, enabling it to produce a broad range of high-quality wines. From predominantly clay soils, through to limestone, pebbly or even sandy soils, the diversity and complexity of the estate's terroir allow the expression of all the sophistication and diversity of the Burgundy varietals. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay reign here, producing respectively elegant reds and refined whites. What truly sets Domaine Moillard apart is its dedication to preserving traditional viticulture and winemaking methods while adopting environmentally respectful practices. Here, vine cultivation is thoughtful, yields are controlled to prioritize the quality of the grapes. Particular care is paid at every step of the winemaking process, from growing the vine to harvesting. Harvesting is done by hand, respecting traditions, and the vinification takes place in French oak vats in a nineteenth-century stone-vaulted cellar, thus ensuring optimal maturation of the wines.
