Aegerter

Aegerter is a renowned wine producer based in the Burgundy region of France. Founded in 1988 by Jean-Luc and Paul Aegerter, the family-owned winery has become one of the most respected and sought-after producers in the region.

Aegerter has fully embraced this tradition by producing a wide range of wines that showcase the unique characteristics of the region.

The Aegerter winery is situated in Nuits-Saint-Georges, a village in the Côte de Nuits sub-region of Burgundy. This area is famous for its red wines made from Pinot Noir grapes, and Aegerter is no exception. Their Pinot Noir wines are highly acclaimed for their depth, complexity, and elegance.

In addition to Pinot Noir, Aegerter also produces Chardonnay, the other iconic grape of Burgundy. Their white wines are made from grapes grown in the Côte de Beaune sub-region, known for its limestone-rich soils that impart a distinctive mineral character to the wines.

The Aegerter range of wines includes both regional and village-level appellations, as well as premier and grand cru vineyards. This allows wine enthusiasts of all levels to experience the distinct terroir and quality of Burgundy wines.
