Establishing his roots in Beaune, Arnaud Baillot has been making wine since obtaining his Master’s in Business in 2013 and purchasing his first vineyards in 2017. Arnaud and his wife Laure, the granddaughter of the founder of Hudelot-Noëllat, showcase their passion for the diversity of Burgundy with a beautiful range of wines across the Côte-d’Or

In addition to the original domaine vineyards in the Côte de Beaune, Arnaud and Laure added new holdings in 2022, now totaling 7.5 hectares. Always farming organically with a focus in biodiversity, the vineyards span the Hautes-Côtes, Meursault, Pommard, and Volnay. Beyond their Côte de Beaune vineyards, Arnaud is crafting terroir-driven négoce bottlings from Chassagne-Montrachet, Gevrey-Chambertin, Chambolle-Musigny, and Vosne-Romanée. 

Now in his seventh vintage, Arnaud continues to make big leaps in his winemaking. He takes a very hands-on approach in the vineyards and in the cellar alike, and is not afraid to take chances in his winemaking. He started incorporating the use of concrete eggs for élevage, which furthered his ability to achieve impressive purity and precision in his wines. Arnaud’s “blank slate” affords him the opportunity to be creative, to avoid being pigeonholed by a single appellation, and to craft his own family history, a position he has embraced well and achieved great things in a very short time.
