The family business was founded in Dijon in 1863 by Frédéric Mugnier, a successful producer of liqueurs, cassis, absinthe, and aromatized wines. During the phylloxera crisis of the 1880s, he began acquiring vineyards in Chambolle-Musigny, followed by the Château de Chambolle-Musigny in 1899 and the monopole Clos de la Maréchale in Nuits-Saint-Georges in 1902.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe domaine and liqueur business remained under family management until 1949. The following year, Jacques-Frédéric Mugnier sold the struggling spirits company and leased the vineyards to Maison Faiveley. Direct control of the Chambolle parcels returned to the family in 1978, and in 1985 his son Frédéric Mugnier—an engineer by training and later a commercial airline pilot—settled permanently at the château and assumed responsibility for the estate. When the long-term lease on Clos de la Maréchale expired in 2003, the domaine grew almost overnight from four to fourteen hectares.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eToday, Frédéric and Jocelyne Mugnier work alongside a dedicated permanent team, farming exceptional holdings that include Musigny, Bonnes-Mares, Chambolle-Musigny Premier Cru Les Amoureuses and Les Fuées, as well as Clos de la Maréchale, the largest monopole in the Côte d’Or. The latter produces both red Pinot Noir and a rare white Nuits-Saint-Georges from Chardonnay.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFrédéric’s approach is thoughtful, empirical, and deeply respectful of the vineyard. Industrial fertilizers were abandoned in 1986, herbicides in 1990, and insecticides in the mid-1990s. Rather than following a prescribed organic or biodynamic system, he practices an exacting form of reasoned viticulture intended to protect the vineyard’s living ecosystem while responding pragmatically to each season.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn the cellar, the wines are made with restraint: grapes are completely destemmed, fermented with indigenous yeasts, and aged for 12 to 18 months in barrel with no more than approximately 30% new oak before bottling without fining or filtration. The resulting wines are celebrated for their purity, delicacy, and transparency—wines shaped less by the hand of the winemaker than by the singular character of their origins.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e100% de-stemmed, 15-20 day ambient yeast fermentation in open wooden vats.
