The Story
Domaine Lagarde is located in Rosey in the heart of Côte Chalonnaise, near Rully and Givry. The estate was established in 1989 when Jean-François Lagarde acquire its first 4 hectares. Now the estate spread over 30 hectares. At that time, all the grapes were vinified in Coop and it is only when Lucile, the younger daughter, joined the estate in 2019, that they started to vinify and bottle in their own premises. Today, they vinify in an old, forgotten 16th-century priory that they decided to restore it and bring it back to life.
