The domaine of Mugneret-Gibourg was formed in 2009 from the amalgamation of the domaines of Mugneret-Gibourg and Dr Georges Mugneret. The domaine is now diligently managed by the daughters of Dr Georges Mugneret, Marie-Christine and Marie-Andrée Mugneret. Hand harvesting in the vineyards combined with rigorous grape selection ensures the highest possible quality fruit goes into the domaine`s wines. For the Pinot Noirs, fruit is mostly destemmed with levels of new oak kept at a moderate level. The Les Chaignots 2009 is made from 45 to 50-year-old vines and aged in 50% new oak barrels.
