Good to Know: Apart from being known for their amazing, centuries old Pinot Noir production and quality, Domaine Pavelot also produces two wines exclusively made from Chardonnay, their Corton Grand Cru and village level Savigny les Beaune.

Established since the 17th century and passed down from generation to generation, it wasn't until the 1980's when Domaine Pavelot, under the leadership of Jean Marc Pavelot, extended its reach to an international level. Jean-Marc's son, Hugues, who has also become a key member of the winemaking team in Domaine Pavelot, joined the winery in 1997. Today, they have become renowned producers in the region and particularly famed for their Les Narbantons, La Dominode and Aux Gravains Premier Cru wines in the Savigny les Beaune sub region of Burgundy.
