Seguin-Manuel has undergone a major rejuvenation since its acquisition by Thibaut Marion in 2004, 180 years after its foundation in 1824.
Coming from a ten-generation family of winegrowers, Chanson Père & Fils, Thibaut started his career — and honed his skills for seven years — at the family winery in Beaune. Today, he puts his experience, passion and energy at the service of the great wines of Burgundy.
Initially located in Savigny-lès-Beaune, new plots have been added to the domain since 2005 in the villages of Beaune and Puligny-Montrachet, and more recently in Pommard, Meursault and Vosne-Romanée. More than 8 hectares of vineyard are now directly grown by the estate.
In the vineyards: organic and chemical free growing (certified since the 2015 vintage), ploughing of the soil, reduction of the yields thanks to strict pruning and green harvesting, manual harvesting in small crates.
In the winery: double sorting of the harvest on the table, natural fermentation in vats, temperature control, maturation in a rejuvenated and renewed oak barrel park, bottling with a light filtration system at the best time for the wine.
