Maison Champy is the oldest wine company in Burgundy from 1720. The winery, which has been declared a historic monument by UNESCO, was designed by the famed architect, Gustave Eiffel.

These prized vineyards, among others owned by Champy, are farmed organically in order to showcase the true character of the terroir in the wines.
