Domaine Rossignol-Février

The Domaine Rossignol-Février located in Volnay is the fruit of a long line of winemakers who have dedicated their lives to producing exceptional wines. Since 1774, this family, attached to its roots, has preserved traditional methods while adopting modern techniques to offer wines that captivate the senses. Valentin, who works in tandem with his father Frédéric, represents the 5th generation of winegrowers in the family.

The 7 ha of vines that the estate cultivates are spread over 16 different appellations, mainly in Pommard and Volnay. All the vines have been cultivated according to biodynamic principles since 2009 and have been certified Demeter since 2012.

On the vinification side, depending on the sanitary state of the harvest, the Rossignol-Février estate can choose to make a percentage of the cuvée from whole grapes. The grapes are lightly pigmented in order to avoid extracting too much tannin, which would denature the aromas of the unique terroir of each plot as well as the typicity of the vintage. Instead, Frédéric and Valentin prefer to carry out pump-overs that allow for a much softer and gentler extraction. 

The estate continues this family tradition with love and devotion, cultivating their vines with respect for nature and harvesting the grapes by hand to preserve their integrity. Each bottle produced is a reflection of their history and commitment to quality.

A beautiful estate to discover very quickly if you haven't already done so!
