DOMAINE SEGUIN MANUEL, Beaune

Thibaut Marion is a 10th generation winegrower, beginning his career with the family's Domaine Chanson Père et Fils (est'd 1750). Following the sale of Chanson to Bollinger, Thibaut began acquiring vineyards, primarily in Savigny-Les-Beaune and Beaune. At the same time, in 2004, Thibaut purchased the historic Seguin Manuel cellars in Beaune, founded in 1824. Over the past 15 years, he has restored and rejuvenated the winery, and increased the Domaine to 8.5 ha in Savigny-Les-Beaune, Beaune, Puligny-Montrachet, Pommard, Meursault and Vosne-Romanée. In addition, Seguin Manuel crafts an extensive selection of negociant wines from purchased fruit and rented vineyards.

All of the Domaine's vineyards are certified organic (since 2015), and Thibaut's work embraces a minimalist approach – hand harvesting and sorting, light filtration, minimal sulphur additions, delicate use of oak.
