In 1993 the village was awarded the appellation ‘Bourgogne Chitry’ for Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The warming climate of recent years has improved the consistency of the wines and demand has soared both domestically and abroad. Aurélie and Thibault Giraudon (sister and brother) are the current generation in control at this leading domaine and are very focused on delivering fresh, elegant wines that are uniquely Chitry. There are thirty hectares in total with the main holdings being Bourgogne Chitry of both colours and an excellent Bourgogne Aligoté. They use exclusively stainless steel for ageing, only natural yeasts are used, and all picking is done by hand.

Many of the parcels are planted with older vines, naturally limiting yields and contributing to the depth and completeness seen across the range. In the cellar, intervention is kept to a minimum: fermentations proceed with a light touch, extraction is gentle, and élevage is adapted to each cuvée.
