Histoire du domaine
Domaine Ramonet was founded in Chassagne-Montrachet by Pierre Ramonet in the late 1920s. In the early days, Pierre Ramonet bought grapes, vinified them and then sold the wines. He gradually acquired plots of land around Chassagne-Montrachet; part of the Ruchottes came under the estate’s ownership in 1934. His son André continued to develop the family business. Pierre’s grandsons, Noël and Jean-Claude Ramonet, subsequently became involved in the estate’s operations and ensured its continuity. After the 2013 harvest, Noël Ramonet withdrew from day-to-day operations to tend his own vines and supply his grapes to Jean-Claude Ramonet. Jean-Claude Ramonet has since taken charge of winemaking and marketing under his own name, whilst maintaining the estate’s established practices. SCEA Domaine Ramonet remains active in Chassagne-Montrachet; its partners include the family-run businesses of Noël and Jean-Claude Ramonet, whilst Jean-Claude Ramonet is the managing director. Since 2024, Pierre-François and Michaël Ramonet have also been managing directors of this company.
Les Chaumées [Rouge]
Les Chaumées is a Premier Cru climat located in the north and on the upper slopes of the Chassagne-Montrachet vineyard, near the border with Saint-Aubin and above the Les Vergers climat. The production specifications authorize the use of this climat name for still white or red wines of the appellation. The documented plots face east to south-east, on clay-limestone soils that are often thin, stony and highly well-drained. A steep slope is reported locally, but the available values pertain to certain properties and cannot be generalized to the entire climat.

Histoire de la parcelle
The toponym preserves the memory of land that was once uncultivated or fallow, progressively cleared and planted with vines. Les Chaumées is included today in the regulatory list of climats that can accompany the "Premier Cru" designation of the AOC Chassagne-Montrachet, for both colors.
