Château de Pommard, Wine estate in Pommard, France
The Château de Pommard is a wine property in Burgundy with two historic buildings, formal gardens, and a walled vineyard of around 20 hectares. The estate focuses on Pinot Noir and other classic Burgundy varieties sourced from this and neighboring vineyard areas.
A French royal official began construction of the main building in 1726 on the site of an earlier medieval fortification. The property evolved over subsequent centuries into the wine estate that stands today.
The vineyard names reflect centuries of tradition, and visitors can see the old stone walls that still enclose the property today. These boundaries shape how the land is used and understood by those who work here.
Visitors can explore the grounds through guided tours and participate in wine tastings offered throughout the year. Planning ahead helps ensure a better experience, as reserved tours and special tasting sessions typically provide more in-depth access.
The walled vineyard received UNESCO recognition as a protected Burgundy Climat in 2015 and holds the distinction of being the largest privately owned enclosed vineyard in the region. This designation honors both the quality of wines produced and the historical importance of this particular landscape.
