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 Vergers
Les Vergers is an officially recognized Premier Cru climat of the AOC Chassagne-Montrachet, located in the commune of Chassagne-Montrachet. The cru designation "Les Vergers" is associated in the specifications with the cadastral lieu-dits Petingeret, Les Pasquelles, and Les Vergers. Producer sources locally describe shallow brown or clay-limestone soils on limestone, but these observations concern their own plots and do not uniformly characterize the 9.41 hectares of the climat.
