THE COMPANY

The Domaine was born, thanks to François de Givry, with the acquisition of two parcels in the heart of Auxey-Duresses. Decisive was the meeting with Anne-Claude Leflaive, who steered the domaine towards biodynamic viticulture but, above all, offered the possibility of vinifying the grapes produced at Domaine Leflaive. Les Riames consists of two sloping plots facing south/southeast on a predominantly marl-limestone soil. With a total area of just over half a hectare, it constitutes the smallest monopole in the Côte de Beaune, a little gem whose virgin soils have always remained uncultivated. The extreme attention to the soil, which is worked with the horse, the respect for nature’s cycles that dictate interventions, and the use of minimal doses of sulfur and copper makes François de Givry a perfect interpreter of this small appellation.
