Histoire du domaine
Le Clos des Lambrays first appears in February 1365 under the name ‘Cloux des Lambrey’ in a title deed belonging to the Abbey of Cîteaux. The vineyard belonged to the abbey during the Middle Ages, before being gradually divided up – particularly during the French Revolution – amongst more than seventy owners. The wine merchant Louis Joly acquired a significant portion of it in 1836, after which Camille and Albert Rodier continued the process of land consolidation from 1866 onwards. A major land consolidation is recorded in 1879. In 1938, the estate was passed on to Renée Cosson. In 1979, Fabien and Louis Saier bought the property together with Roland Pelletier de Chambure and undertook the restoration of the vineyards, the enclosure walls and the buildings, with Thierry Brouin as estate manager. Clos des Lambrays was officially granted Grand Cru status on 27 April 1981. Following the Saiers’ financial difficulties in the mid-1990s, Günter and Ruth Freund acquired the estate. Following the death of Günter Freund, LVMH became the owner of Domaine des Lambrays in 2014. Jacques Devauges, former estate manager at Clos de Tart, took over the management of the estate in 2019. Additional plots were incorporated into the vineyard from 2021 onwards, and the 2022 vintage is the estate’s first to be certified as organically farmed.
