Domaine Nathalie Richez is a family-run Burgundy estate based in Chagny, founded in 2011 by Nathalie Richez after a career change and formal studies in winery management. Personally owned and led by Nathalie, the domaine reflects a hands-on, independent approach, with her daughter Laura now part of the family venture. The estate works vineyards from Mercurey to Beaune, including appellations in the Côte Chalonnaise and Côte de Beaune, with a philosophy centered on respect for terroirs and inherited know-how. In the vineyard and cellar, the domaine follows sustainable viticulture, avoids chemical weed-killer, works the soils, hand-harvests grapes, uses natural yeasts, and ages the wines in oak for about a year.
