Domaine Frédéric Esmonin traces its origins to the 1970s, when André Esmonin established the family estate in Gevrey-Chambertin after generations of selling fruit to major négociants. In 1988, his son Frédéric joined the domaine, and together they began bottling and marketing wines under their own label, marking a turning point in the family’s history. Frédéric also launched a négociant brand, Les Estournelles, while expanding vineyard holdings to include prestigious Grand Cru parcels such as Ruchottes-Chambertin, Mazis-Chambertin, Chambertin Clos de Bèze, Bonnes-Mares, and Chambertin itself, alongside Premier Cru sites like Lavaux St-Jacques and Estournelles St-Jacques. Today, the domaine spans about 4 hectares, producing wines aged traditionally in oak casks for 14–17 months, with careful use of new oak depending on vineyard status. Known for their purity, structure, and value relative to Burgundy’s elite terroirs, Frédéric Esmonin’s wines embody the family’s evolution from grape suppliers to respected independent producers in the Côte de Nuits.

About Winery
Chateau Cos d'Estournel is a Grand Cru vineyard located in St. Estephe. Its oriental facade is adorned with three pagoda turrets, all cast in a soft golden sandstone. Chateau Cos d'Estournel today covers 170 acres separated from Chateau Lafite, along the southern edge, by the stream between St. Estephe and Pauillac.
The gravelly soil, over a flint, limestone and silicate subsoil low in nitrogen, has eroded over centuries to form steep ridges which perfectly drain the vineyards. The vineyards are planted 60 percent in Cabernet Sauvignon vines, 2 percent of Cabernet Franc, and 38 percent in Merlot. Naturally, the percentage of Cabernet or Merlot in the composition of each vintage depends on the climate which favors one grape variety or the other.
