Domaine Lucien Muzard & Fils is run by the dedicated duo of brothers Claude and Hervé Muzard, the ninth generation to manage this family domaine that traces its history back to 1645.
Santenay is home to their largest concentration of vineyards, which average 55 years of age, including 1er Crus Maladière and Gravières as well as villages-level Champs Claude. Over the years they have collected a nice assortment of terroirs in the neighboring villages of Maranges, Puligny, Chassagne and Meursault.
While Santenay has a reputation for being more “rustic”, Muzard’s wines tend toward the elegant end of the spectrum, highlighted by crunchy, earthy red fruit. The whites are aromatic and energetic, and like their red counterparts, among the finest values to be found from the Côte d’Or.
