Vincent Girardin was born in Santenay, in the Cote de Beaune and is part of a winemaking family with roots back to the 17th century. Now in his forties, Vincent began his winemaking career in 1982 with only 2 hectares of vines. When his father retired, Vincent took over several additional hectares to which he could devote himself. In order to sell his wines, Vincent did not hesitate to go from door-to-door in the big cities to convince his first clients. At Domaine Vincent Girardin the grapes are harvested by hand, then sorted twice, once in the vineyard and for a second time in the winery. The sorting process eliminates all elements that are not fully ripe or not in the best condition. The presses are pneumatic in order to preserve the purety of the grapes. Next the wines are aged in oak barrels. This carefully controlled ageing process allows the wines to achieve their full potential. In order to preserve their natural qualities to the utmost, the red wines are not fined or filtered. The work in the vines is carried out with the greatest care and respect for the environment and nature. Thus Vincent Girardin does not have recourse to herbicides or insecticides. The soil is worked to ensure proper aeration. Vincent Girardin rigorously controls the yields by pruning, adding only natural, slow release fertilizer, by severe removal of excess buds, and green-harvesting. The main wines from the Domaine come from Premier Cru and Grand Cru slopes.
