Château de Pommard, Historic winery in Pommard, Burgundy, France
Château de Pommard is a winery spread across 20 hectares of enclosed vineyards in Burgundy, dedicated to producing premium Pinot Noir wines. The estate combines historic buildings with organized vineyard plots that are worked according to traditional methods.
Built in 1726 by Vivant Micault, secretary to King Louis XV, this property held royal status until the French Revolution changed its ownership. The estate later gained renown as a major wine producer in the region.
The seven vineyard sections reflect the Burgundian approach of recognizing how each plot of land produces distinct flavors in the wine. Visitors can taste these differences directly during tours.
Guided tours in multiple languages, wine tastings, and educational workshops about wine production are available throughout the year. Visitors should check ahead, as specific offerings vary by season.
The Clos Marey-Monge vineyard is the largest monopoly in the region, entirely controlled by this single estate, a rare situation in Burgundy. Variations in soil composition across this land create several different expressions of the same wine variety.
