Pinot Noir is one of Burgundy's 4 grape varieties , and along with Chardonnay it is one of the most widespread, accounting for 39.5% of all vines grown.
Probably planted as early as the creation of the Burgundy vineyards - traces of which date back to Roman times - it was in 1395 that Duke Philippe II le Hardi banned the cultivation of the "vile and disloyal gamay" in favour of pinot noir in his lands.
Over time, each village has developed and jealously preserved its own variety of Pinot noir, responsible for the reputation of all the region's great red wines.
At Domaine Mia, our wine Pinot Noir is made from grapes grown in our Climat Les Sazenay in the Côte Chalonnaise.
