    The Domaine Comte Senard vineyards extend across prime plots, notably in the Corton appellation, renowned for its Grand Cru wines. The soils, composed primarily of clay and limestone, impart a unique minerality to the wines, while allowing the vine roots to draw the essential elements for their maturation. Burgundy's climate, with its seasonal variations, provides an ideal setting for cultivating Pinot Noir, whose carefully selected grapes express the full richness of the terroir. Each harvest is a pivotal moment, where the meticulous attention paid to the vines translates into finesse and depth in the glass.

    Owner and history

    Today, Domaine Comte Senard is managed by the Senard family, who perpetuate a savoir-faire passed down through generations. The current owners, passionate about their craft, are committed to maintaining the excellence of their wines while looking to the future. They have modernized winemaking practices while respecting tradition, thus creating a harmonious balance. Their commitment to quality and sustainability is evident in every bottle, making Domaine Comte Senard a key player in Burgundy.

    Vinification and aging

    Winemaking at Domaine Comte Senard is a meticulous process, respectful of the fruit and the terroir. The Pinot Noir grapes are harvested by hand, then carefully sorted to retain only the finest grapes. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, allowing for optimal temperature control and gentle aroma extraction. The wine is then aged in oak barrels, some of which are new, to impart complexity and structure. During this period, the wine is regularly racked to encourage its development and reveal its full character. This artisanal approach allows for the creation of authentic wines, a true reflection of their terroir.
