Maison Champy

 Established in 1720 by Edmé Champy and operating as the oldest house in Burgundy,  for three centuries the Maison has been instrumental in building the international reputation of Burgundy and French Savoir Faire. Indeed, Champy’s story is interwoven with some of the most important French historical figures of the 19th and 20th centuries, including Louis Pasteur and Gustave Eiffel. Maison Champy owns 21 hectares of vineyards, which are farmed organically and certified HVE spread across the Côte d’Or. The winery and its 15th century cellars are in Beaune. 

Since 1999, winemaker Dimitri Bazas has been at the helm, overseeing production and viticulture. Dimitri, whose résumé includes working for such iconic names such as Christophe Roumier, Marquis d’Angerville, Bonneau du Martray and others, has identified key vineyard expansion into top sites of the Côte d’Or and is largely responsible for the Maison’s conversion to organic farming over the last two decades.
