Our Story
Spanning 5 hectares (12.5 acres), Domaine de la Ferté is devoted exclusively to Pinot Noir, producing both Givry and Givry Premier Cru wines. These vineyards, once owned by the monks of the Abbey of La Ferté, the first daughter-house of Citeaux, are ideally situated on a south-facing hillside with chalky clay soils. The 50-year-old vines yield wines that are both stylish and powerful, reflecting the rich heritage of the land.
Wine enthusiasts can indulge in tastings from five esteemed estates managed by the Devillard Family: Château de Chamirey, Domaine des Perdrix, Domaine de la Ferté, Domaine de la Garenne, and Le Renard. Each estate offers a unique expression of the region’s diverse terroir and winemaking excellence.
